[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] How is it more honest to move out to a pricey suburb with high-quality schools? Please explain. [/quote] Whataboutism at its finest. [/quote] I hear you, but I don't think it's whataboutism in this case – because there are a limited number of options for K-12 education and you're legally required to pick one. It's easy to say that private schools are this moral affront when you have an excellent public school down the street and the resources to choose where you live in the first place. Our educational system as a whole perpetuates the many social inequities in this country – and while a handful of absurdly well-resourced NY private schools may be emblematic of the problem ... they're not really the problem.[/quote] Exactly. [/quote] Totally agree. It is another form of privilege to be able to buy into a neighborhood zoned for good public schools. It’s not that different. [/quote]
