[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Its really weird how it seems to be the parents choice. Obviously elementary and maybe more child input for middle, but we definitely gave our child final say for high school.[/quote] It never even occurred to me that a kid would have more of a say than the parent when it comes to HS, unless there is a very strong specific interest. It's interesting to hear that others have the opposite viewpoint. I keep coming back to, these are just kids - why are we saddling them with this responsibility?[/quote] Because it's their life. This is my perspective based on my own experience. My parents moved to what was seen as "the best" school district in a wealthy part of town. Going to school with all the self absorbed rich kids was no picnic. I chose a magnet for high school. Best choice I ever made. I'm grateful my parents backed me up.[/quote]
