[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We did not underwrite our kid's success. They earned it.

Your little Larla may fall on her face when Daddy is not there to bankroll her supposed accomplishments. Mine will not. [/quote]

Nasty public school parent. Shame on you.[/quote]

Also false. You pay for the home in your kid’s school district, computers, books, summer camps, enrichment, etc. We all underwrite our kid’s successes by providing opportunities for them to learn. Some choose to sacrifice much more to send their kids to private schools, which most parents can’t easily afford. Others drive Range Rovers and BMWs and take expensive vacations while lecturing DCUM on the moral virtues of sending their kids to public school and being gleeful when they hear anecdotes of private school kids whose parents are upset they didn’t get into their preferred Ivy. Those parents also don’t get it. If all you thought you were paying for was a guarantee of some college admission, you clearly didn’t do your homework.[/quote]
