[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So just wondering how you feel about parents who accept the sibling preference spots. So much animosity on here about the sibling link and its unfairness - do you think parents who are in that situation should reject the spot?  Or do you not blame them for taking it?  Or what?[/quote]
You are making the best academic/life choice for your child given your situation. No apologies necessary. This debate is largely about jealousy.  Stay strong.  Immersion has so many advantages, you will not be disappointed
[/quote]No, I don't get what the fuss is about. If your kid gets into Harvard and mine doesn't I might have a problem (kidding). You don't have to have your kid in an immersion language to have your kid be bilingual. I speak three languages. Never did an immersion program. Both OP and PP need to get over themselves. Nobody is jealous because you kid is learning to speak another language. Billions of people can do that. The issue with each round the odds are never that same. You never know how many seats are taken up. What if you apply in a year with all seats open and your neighbor applies in a year where only three seats are open. Are you so stupid you can't see the problem people would have would that. Not blaming the the OP, the county is at fault. I don't have dog in this fight my kids are older. I do however have a strong sense of what's equitable. [/quote]
