[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the people calling the OP a jerk are ones who firmly believe private means better education and amazing opportunities. And the people calling the wife entitled and delusional are the ones who still believe in the value of public schools and what they have to offer.

Also being able to afford something does NOT mean one should pay for something they don’t see value in. All you people saying well you can afford it aren’t realizing that maybe OP sees a better use of that money somewhere else like in his investment portfolio. [/quote]

And I think you are wrong on all counts here except your third sentence. [/quote]

I disagree. I am adding my kids to public school and I am a female breadwinner with a working husband. I think it’s gross the way OP is describing his wife, her education, and her opinions. He doesn’t see her as a partner or see his earning as a family income. It’s all about him and how he would have to work an extra 3 years. That reeks of a guy who thinks he is doing his wife a favor by changing a diaper or says he is “babysitting” when he is alone with the kids.

[b]My reason they should do private is that I am guessing their social circles and children’s budding friendships are based on people who send their kids to private school[/b]. If half to most of their friends do public and they have local neighborhoods in public school, then I’ll change my tune. I think OP is a bit short sighted for someone who makes $500k. I would think the right private would provide networking opportunities that would defray the cost of school tuition. [/quote]

This is a dumb reason!! Omggg this thread is filled with stupidity. [/quote]
