[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have one child in private and one child in public, for just the reasons you mention. It's a PITA logistically for me, but there's no jealousy on the part of the kids. We frequently talk about how each child goes to the school that is right for them. If anything, my private school kid is jealous of my public school kid's neighborhood friends.

Fair does not mean equal. Not in schools and not in anything else. That's an important concept for kids to understand.[/quote]

THIS.   Put each child in the school that is right for them. Frankly having him in the same school for logistical reasons  is unfair,  especially to the child that needs more help. I do have a dog in this fight, as I have one child in public and one in private. DS has never seen the inside of a public school because it wasn't the right environment for him. The one in public with thriving until this year. We are pulling her out putting her in a different private school. There has never been any issues of sibling rivalry when it comes to school issues. As a matter of fact they enjoy going to each other schools and meeting the kids for social events.  Fwiw,  they are also just one grade apart. [/quote]
