[quote=Anonymous]No it's not. I never "always" wanted my children to go anywhere in particular. I sent them to a good public school, and when I thought their needs were no longer being met there, I checked out a wide variety of schools to see which one was the best fit. I had no preconceived ideas about which one was best. I know people who have "always" wanted their kids to attend a certain school, and these people's kids are toddlers! When I ask them why, it's inevitably because of the social standing and contact they think their kid (and maybe they) will make. Not because it would be a great fit for their child. And I think it's really sad to see a child unhappy at a school that's a poor fit because their parents wanted them to go there so they could brag about it. That's what admissions officers try and prevent.[/quote]
