[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s not admirable to send your kids to public school.  You either do or you don’t.  The only people who think it’s admirable are the ones who have a chip on their shoulders about private schools.  If you don’t like private, don’t send your kids there.  But it’s none of your business what other people do.  They’re actually keeping your property taxes down by paying for something they’re not going to use.  [/quote]

You are defensive about a discussion about potus kids. Unless you are a former First Lady, this post was not about you. [/quote]

Not being defensive at all.  Responding to the idea it’s something to be “admired” to choose public school.  It’s not.  People are free to choose for their families what they want.  It’s none of anyone else’s business.

And the anti-private school people who insist on being in others business really need to get their stories straight… is it a waste of money or buying an advantage?[/quote]

I really don't care whether you or any regular people do in terms of school choice. I said "admire" in this very specific context about Carter.  I do think elected officials have more responsibility when it comes to what their decisions signal and symbolize. It's like my superintendent sending his kids to private school. That was a bad look. You should inspire confidence in your work and leadership abilities. [/quote]
