[quote=Anonymous]I live in a close-knit neighborhood with good public schools, so I've met plenty of people who are surprised/offended/irked that we chose private school. How I answer depends on how the question is asked. If I know it's an earnest question from someone really looking for understanding, I explain how the fit makes sense for our kids. If I'm not sure (or if the question carries a hostile undertone), I just answer "oh, lots of different reasons," and then change the subject ... "Hey look! An albino fox!"[/quote]
