seriously -- these people show no resilience at all.  I wonder what would happen if they had to deal with real hardship.....[/quote]
Try immigrating to a country with no education, not knowing the language and raising four little children, then having those kids become educated with good paying jobs. Then report back on dealing with "real hardships".

--signed an Asian immigrant whose family fits that bill

DP.[b] Yes, those are real hardships. Not getting into a middle-school magnet program is not.[/b] I'm glad that we agree.[/quote]
Exactly [/quote]
Then why mention about how not getting into MS magnet means those kids can't deal with any hardships?  What makes people think these kids aren't resilient just because their parents feels that these kids weren't treated fairly by MCPS?

I can tell you that not being treated fairly does the opposite of what you think -- it makes you more resilient.  That doesn't mean that it's a good thing that these kids were treated unfairly.  Whenever anyone is treated unfairly, there is something wrong in the system.[/quote]
