[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think those of you who have not had children at the Cathedral schools really have no idea what you are talking about when you speculate about gender dynamics.  Its like there's a thread going on and everyone wants in so they are opining about a situation with which they have no direct experience.  The issues at these schools are very particular to the schools.[/quote]

I'm sorry. But your hundreds of posts have convinced us that you're a lunatic. So we're not going to let you slide with an easy out like "you just can't understand why I seem crazy but I'm not."[/quote]

I haven't posted hundreds of times.  I've been reluctant to post on this thread because of the ridiculous name calling.  I don't know whom you are referring to but it isn't me.

I don't see why its such a radical idea that just because you know boys and girls that you don't necessarily know the culture/atmosphere/ ethos of a school your children don't attend.  I would never opine about, say, the atmosphere at St. Patrick's because I've never had a child attend that school, though I do have a son and daughter.  All of you blah blah blahing about girls schools in general, or girls and their mothers, or whatever -- maybe it feels good to express yourself and its a free country, but you really have no idea whats going on at NCS.  The funny thing is that then you get into these fights where you dig in and argue, argue, argue over something you don't have any direct experience with.  Why such strong feelings if you have no direct experience.

There are posts from parents like myself who have had daughters at NCS.  The posts don't agree, clearly there are differing experiences.  But they clearly come from people who have direct experience and something to offer on the topic.  Everyone else just sounds bored and ready to pick a fight.[/quote]
