[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not my call. I don't like to judge and don't think a parent should play armchair residency fraud investigator, even if blatant cheating appears to be involved.  Would much rather see political pressure applied in a push for holistic solutions.

Where boundary cheating goes, from what I've observed, parents who bitch about cheaters ownign multiple residential properties invariably have personal reasons to go at fellow parents. The complainers claim they don't, but obviously do. 
Glad to know that personal vendetta oriented parents snitching on DC taxpayers are generally ignored by city officials.[/quote]

So you can’t judge if cheating is wrong?  All cheating?  What if your spouse cheated on you? What if your child cheated on a test?  What about cheating on your taxes?

Beyond the residency fraud issue, it is fascinating that some people don’t seem to have a moral compass of their own. Where do you draw the line?[/quote]

I draw the line at your sanctimonious BS.[/quote]

I actually think it’s a decent question. The person who I know is committing residency fraud has no problem announcing it to people and telling them how she does it/gets away with it. She just doesn’t believe it’s wrong. Fine. However, she has taught her child to lie by drilling her over and over that if anyone asks, she lives in DC and her address is that of her grandmother. I have a problem with that. It definitely shows a lack of ethics/morality to teach your kid to lie because you want her to go to school near where you work and because you don’t want to pay for aftercare. This is someone whose HHI is about 160K, not rich but also not someone who is desperate.[/quote]
