[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My question is what do middle class families do in this area public is declining but private even with aid is unaffordable so what do they do?[/quote]

Parents need to make more money.  Work harder or find a higher paying job.[/quote]

Great. Given that, I hope you know that your kid will no longer have teachers, you'll no longer have anyone to come collect your trash, there will no longer be lawn service staff or housecleaners for you to hire unless those people are all childless. Because low paying jobs have no value, amiright?[/quote]

You can be unreasonable if you want.  This was actually [b]good advice[/b].[/quote]

DP. It barely even qualified as advice. Just a lazy comment.[/quote]

Nope, it was good advice.  If parents want to raise kids, don't complain about the expenses.  Put on your big boy pants and work harder or find a higher paying job.  Otherwise, just accept you cannot afford the life you want.  This is how life works.  Stop asking other people to pay for you.[/quote]

No one was complaining, nor were they “asking other people to pay” for them. You apparently see things that aren’t there. Maybe raise it with your doctor. Along with a referral to anger management.[/quote]

Read the prior posts again.  Your reading comprehension is what warrants a visit to the doctor.[/quote]

I read them. Asking what a middle class family should do when publics are bad and privates are unaffordable—which is what the “advice was responding to—is not asking other people to pay, nor were any of the comments that followed. So you can add reading comprehension to your growing list.[/quote]

It mentioned “private even with aid is unaffordable.”  Financial aid is funded by donations to private schools, usually by families of students and alumni.  Applying for financial aid is asking other people to pay for your kid, and accepting financial aid is allowing other people to pay.  What part of this are you not understanding?[/quote]

Ohhhh I get it, you’re that same weird, angry person that flips out anytime anyone here mentions financial aid. Never mind then.

P.S. Asking what middle class families are supposed to do when publics are in decline and “private even with aid is unaffordable” is not the same as asking people to pay for you. But I know FA triggers you, so you won’t get it.[/quote]

You sound paranoid and unhealthy.[/quote]
