[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want my child to be a good, resilient, strong person. I would never send them to private school to be surrounded by those kids and families. I'm sure many of them are fine, but so very many of them have godawful values and behavior. [/quote] Do you usually form your opinions from reading a single Atlantic article? I mean, it's no skin off my teeth if you want to forever reject private schools due to this article. Go for it, follow your bliss. But recognize that your conclusion may be somewhat underdetermined by evidence. We're a FA family at a pricey private school and the vast majority of other families are just normal, nice people. Most of them have a lot more money than we do, but I don't consider that a character flaw in and of itself. Are there entitled snobs? I'm sure there are. I'm also sure that there are entitled snobs in a lot of public schools.[/quote]
