[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think parents that send their kids to public need to feel good about that choice and parents that send their kids to private need to feel good about that choice. The result of this is that whatever group you find yourself in you will argue that it is the superior choice. Neither really knows that much about the other side and make a lot of presumptions. This is just like the unwinnable SAHM v WOHM debates. Most posters here have children that are going to be successful because of their SES background, some will hit obstacles because of their nature or family dynamics that have nothing to do with the public/private school debate. The truth is, after finding a good school, we all have too much time on our hands to worry about all of this.[/quote] But isn't it also enjoyable to make fun of parents who have a quality public option, and don't have a ton of disposable income, who nevertheless send their kids to "independent" schools? I'm interested in their reasons -- my suspicion being those reasons are borne more of narcissism than what's good for their kids.[/quote]
