[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm an Exeter grad who might have considered sending my kids to a DC private, but no way in hell after reading this thread. You people are awful. I'm sticking with our EOTP DCPS, where we have brilliant kids from all backgrounds, and none of the God awful snobbery you have displayed here. Bunch of idiotic peacocks. I feel sorry for your kids. Your ignorance undermines the excellent education they are receiving.[/quote]

Why would you even think of including dcum in your decision making is beyond me.[/quote]

Im not, just making an observation. The public schools are fine for my children. I have always said I dont want them to know that there are such things as $400 shirts or vacation homes in Aspen  until they are old enough to put that in context and know that's completely excessive.Im sure many Exeter parents were snobs, but it's a boarding school, so that didnt factor in. Service and humility are a big part of the culture there. It would be hugely gauche to discuss wealth and social class (climbing) the way parents on this board do. And I agree, reading dcum is a filthy habit, but I guess you have it too! and i really want to know, are you more baffled that i'd write off a particular school based on disgusting comments  on this board than you are outraged by the attitudes among parents in your "highly selective" school community? Think about it. [/quote]
