I genuinely don’t think this is OP’s issue. I think for a certain contingent of private school parents - a top college is the goal. For others, that would be a bonus but is not the goal - we just have so many issues with public school we wouldn’t consider it regardless of the college issue.  The public school parent is the one who is insecure - thinking they are making a point that “we spent no extra money” and now look our kids are going to the same place!  The private school parent inherently knows their kid received a better education that will be reflected in college, the work world and beyond but then has to play along and not say anything in order to not hurt the public school parents feelings  or avoid coming off snobby. I. Essence we are being asked to extend the courtesy that they are not extending to us. They are “bragging” about their great result yet we cannot brag about how our kids high school education was better than their kids. [/quote]

+1. They're deeply insecure with an inferiority complex; from snide remarks in public to obsessively reading and posting on a private school sub-forum every day.[/quote]

But that is not what OP reported. OP said the other parent simply stated where their child was admitted in response to OP saying where their child was admitted. Why is OP allowed to make that statement but the other parent is not?

I know. None of you will answer this simple question, regardless of how many times it is asked. Why is that?
