[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good Lord people. 
I have kids at another Big3 and they have had not had more things "handed to them" vs. their [b]equally well-off friends from publics.[/b]  We came from public in 8th (and graduated one kid from pubic) so i know of what I speak.

You live in a bubble.  Not all publics are filled with kids who are equally well off.[/quote]

No, I don't live in a bubble.  Perhaps my phrasing was confusing.  My private school kids are typical DCUM kids--children of two professional parents.  I'm not comparing my kids to impoverished kids, etc.

[b]Professional class DCUM kids in private are resourced the same as professional class DCUM kids in public.  T[/b] Their school does not hand them any other opportunities or coddling. 
That's what I'm saying.   I was either confusing or you are choosing to be obtuse.

You don’t understand. Having to fight for a parking spot for their Land Rover in the morning prepares them for the real world. [/quote]

My Sidwell senior drives a car older than he is. Yep, a 2004. And not a Land Rover. I am driving the “new” car - a 2005. [/quote]
