[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]and I don't know what to do about it. It is a great school but I am miserable.My kids seem happy and that its what matters. I am miserable[/quote] Translation: I’m a striver and the rich cool parents haven’t invited me into their orbit. Sorry your social climbing scheme hasn’t worked. If you didn’t have a lot of rich outgoing friends before your kid went to private school — via your neighborhood, career, country club, college and private school alum network, travel sport circuit, church or synagogue — why would you have them now? You have nothing in common, you don’t speak their language, you don’t know so and so and so and so. And frankly, you’re delusional on what private school provides you as a parent. It doesn’t guarantee any parent some brand new social orbit. And anyone who goes in expecting or fishing for that is pegged a social climbing worm from the get-go.[/quote] Wow you are so toxic and I think you missed op’s point which is you DO have something in common which is your kids and you are in the same community. I can’t think of anything that makes me have more in common with other parents than that. We are wealthy and are in the process of co owning a family business which makes us even more wealthy than most and I could care less who else is as well. I try to be friendly and reach out to ALL parents. Your poor kids I feel for them because you sound like a very toxic vapid vile parent. How sad that you are raising kids. [/quote]
