[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are excited to go to SSSAS but the previous Woke poster now gives me pause.  Woke poster please know that people are tired of you and u ilk.  You are exhausting to be around.  [/quote]

Nope.  Have a child going there in the fall. Also have a federal job.  I am tired of politics.  It is in my world every day, and on social media and I get tired of the constant drumbeat of doom.  To hear it coming from anything associated with my kids school makes me sad.[/quote]

You live in the DMV. It's pervasive and not going anywhere.[/quote]

Thanks.  I actually grew up here and went to private here.  It used to be the case that Politics wasn’t day to day conversation everywhere.  My family is a mix of both. And it’s been ok because we don’t have to make that the defining characteristic of our relationship.  We chose SSSAS because the school seems super nice and has great classes and the people seem genuinely interested in educating kids.  I do not care who they voted for.  That’s not a defining feature of my relationship with them.  It’s how it should be.  I don’t care who my hairdresser voted for if she does my hair well. And I don’t care who my kids swim coach voted for if they are coaching well.  And I don’t want them to push their views on me when I’m getting my hair done or on my kid from the side of the pool.  I have no doubt that the school leans liberal.  I am a cradle Episcopalian and know very well how the church leans. But it was the “woke” poster who took this thread into an angry place and there is just no need for it.  Chill out.[/quote]
