[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look. I don’t think my kids are getting a better education in private. I think that *I* am having a better experience as the client. Even I think that’s sort of gross but it’s true. Compare to, say, a 5 star or 3 star hotel. You’re like, but the 3 star has free breakfast, airport shuttle, and is actually in a more convenient location. And I’m like, fine but my experience is just better in the 5 star. And you’re like, decor doesn’t matter. You don’t even use the pool. One time I stayed at a 5 star hotel and the bathroom wasn’t clean. They don’t have enough wheelchair accessible rooms so for people in wheelchairs the 3 star is unquestionably better. Fine. I still want to stay at the better hotel. I just like it. If I had to stay at a 3 star I’m sure everything would be fine but you can’t convince me it’s actually better from an experiential perspective. It isn’t. [/quote] I think your analogy is off. Some people may want to stay in a ryokan in Hakone, camping in Yellowstone or stay in a castle in Ireland vs a luxury 5 star resort in BVI. I love to travel. I love luxury hotels and resorts. We also like diversity and our kids attending kids with normal kids from different backgrounds.[/quote]
