[quote=Anonymous]I often marvel how far we have come from when I was a kid. I'm sure my parents didn't give a second thought to which school my siblings and I would attend. The almost certainly never attended a PTA meeting, and we private wouldn't have been on the table even if we could afford it. Now, the norm among most parents I know is to extensively research schools, worry about your IB school, attend multiple open houses at charters and schools where you're OOB, and of course, worry about transporting your kids to and from school and before/after care since so many households have two working parents. I had thought that most people did all this because they worried about finding a quality school where their kids would be challenged to excel. Little did I know that in addition to all of the above I should be worried about finding a school where I feel "comfortable" as a parent. Go figure.[/quote]
