[quote=Anonymous]Oooh, I need to add something just for you, 18:12. In your case, by which I mean the case of a nouveau riche who is just now patting himself on the back for bumping his DC into a 2nd tier private, thinking he's finally "arrived".... Your kid might just learn some "polish" from his friends that you yourself are unable to impart. Your kid will learn from his new friends in private school which imported beer to drink, where to buy his khakis, where to vacation, and much more. These are things you're undoubtedly incapable of teaching him yourself, poor you. For the rest of us, of course, we learn these things from the cradle, in the bosom of our old money families. Public or private school is irrelevant for this. We don't rely on someone else's kids to tell our kids what "polish" means. Ta ta![/quote]
