[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And one more “ NCRC parents didn’t just allow but paid for school officials to violate boundaries and delegitimize their role as parents. Designated as mere “grown-ups,” parents and the critical role they play as caregivers and protectors were downgraded in the eyes of their own children. The school didn’t just distance children from their parents but from religious and cultural traditions as well. This is a common tactic for those grooming children for sexual abuse. Signs of grooming for sexual abuse can be subtle and may vary, but common indicators include isolation, gradual crossing of boundaries, and trust building.” [/quote]

This is an insane leap. Grownups is used because there are children in the school who may not have a mom or dad or who may be being raised by a relative. It is an easy way to ensure children don’t feel excluded. It is thoughtful and intentional. [/quote]

Yep!  And many kids are dropped off or picked up or both by nannies, so grown ups encompasses those people too.

I’m also pretty sure I got Mother’s Day cards from my kids from school there, FWIW. And Halloween isn’t celebrated at school because some little kids get skittish about costumes, but the Saturday family Pumpkin Party is one of the highlights of the year.

Like most DC private school parents, NCRC is certainly liberal, but this article is painting a picture that was not my experience.

Same! This article absolute does not match my experience at NCRC. I’m not sure who these people are who are so invested in trash taking a preschool but for those who know the school, this article is laughable. [/quote]
