[quote=Anonymous]The post from 14:00 today -- which is so ridiculously obnoxious that it shouldn't be repeated -- reflects a sentiment that I've seen on this site multiple times.

The line of exchanges that lead to a post like 14:00 usually goes something like this:

First: Someone says that those of us who send our kids to schools like SH/EH/JA don't prioritize the education of our kids, don't care enough about our kids, or something along those lines.

Next: Someone points out that upper-income kids in those schools perform comparably to upper-income kids in Ward 3 schools, pointing to PARCC data for white kids (which is a decent proxy for upper-income in DC).

Finally: Someone like the poster at 14:00 clings onto the word "white" and accuses us of caring [i]only[/i] about our own kids -- which completely contradicts the original accusation made against us.

So which one is it, people? Do those of us with kids at SH/EH/JA not care enough about our own kids? Or do we care [i]too much[/i] about them to the exclusion of others.
