[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We went through this a couple of times with both kids.  There is jealousy and anger involved, especially if you tell them it is because of substandard MCPS.

We told people we wanted religious element in education and the satisfied them.  But know that they are still steaming about it.  One time I posted something on Facebook about common core and how I am glad my kids don't deal with it, and this rabid mom attacked me.  She is one who asked my why I pulled my daughter out of MCPS before anyone.  She also seemed happy to hear that it was religious reasons.  But now she knows there are other benefits we enjoy and she is angry.[/quote]

So you post something inflammatory on Facebook, and are annoyed that someone reacted to it?  You can’t even see your part in this, can you?[/quote]

Of course I do. But it was effective at knowing true feelings. I am always looking for opportunities to purge toxic people in my life. [/quote]

So clearly you did it on purpose, and are now claiming that the responder is the toxic one. You sure are something else. [/quote]

No not at all.  It was a response to someone else's post on the subject, so just stating my opinion.  [b]But I really don't care[/b] because I knew all along there was fierce jealousy on her part.  Her daughter exudes the jealousy to my daughter as well at the pool.  She is always competing with her on things like what team she is on, etc.  It is so funny to hear about.

That’s the thing - you do. You really really do. But since you are seriously lacking in self awareness, you’ll deny it ‘til the cows come home. [/quote]

Nothing to deny.  I clearly pointed out I knew exactly what is going on!  Did I provoke her?  No.  She responded, and I knew right away I was right!

Well you better hope this ages well. Her child may very well end up a higher achiever and do much better than yours in the end. Ultimately it is not the school but the student. We go out of our way to avoid mentioning private and for those parents who choose public, make sure to praise the achievements of their kids. We also get shade from day private parents for choosing a great BS. We're not some kind of good people for this btw. But just why would you choose to send out that toxicity?[/quote]
