[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also just think: how is your kid going to feel when Larlo jets off to an African Safari during Spring break?  Lesser than.  While I agree private schools are (generally) better for academics and behavior - and certainly prepare a child for a corporate life these Tony schools also give an average kid a major inferiority complex.  I would keep researching - there are some really good cheaper private schools that give the bang without the ‘tude.  (Religious)

Also poster is correct.  We had to look at private for a special need and they only took off 7,000.  (I made close to double what you make with stay at home spouse).  They want that spouse working.[/quote]

I agree! We are a high income family but do not throw our money around or wear it on our sleeve. Sweet baby jesus...how these people toss money around is insane. It's always been very important that our kids not be spoiled and have a healthy respect for money. My one son's friend lives in a 10.5 bathroom house with 2 swimming pools. One inside, one out, and an underground garage that holds probably 3M in cars. It is the most insane gratuitous display of wealth I have ever seen. [/quote]
