I think there is a lot of imagining what goes on in these school that is not true. Also, I think there is an expectation for upper middle class kids to act better than the rest of the kids just because they have money. They are sometimes bratty and spoil - the expectations placed on them are unreasonable. If we placed judgements on public school kids the way you guys place judgement on private school kids it would be called bigotry.

[b]The point of this post was not do rich kids play with poor kids. The point of this post was what is soooo awful about upper middle class schools.[/b] Nobody has really pointed out what is awful.

I challenge anybody to look deep inside themselves and explain why they get some sort of joy when they hear a private school kid got in a little or a lot of trouble or they see them smoking a cigarette at the mall with their blazer on. I mean what is that all about? Why do you hate these kids so much?[/quote]

This explains a lot. You've missed the point of the entire thread.  Please read the header.  And then go back and read the responses, and notice how people are responded to the subject header.  You've apparently been carrying on a conversation about an issue that nobody else is talking about.  Nobody hates upper middle class schools or the kids that attend them.  Nobody was talking about that.  They were talking about the very narrow issue of how to expose your kids to meaningful diversity.[/quote]
