[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I would not want to send my child to a school where they would finish at age 18 with the belief that they are destined for greatness. [/quote] Huh? Why wouldn't you want your child to be confident that they are capable of achieving greatness? I once heard a quote to the effect that "whether you believe you can or you believe you can't you're probably right" and it stuck with me. I think kids who have developed determination and self confidence have a great advantage in life. I just don't know if spending $$$ on a private school education is the only or even the best way to develop this.[/quote] There is a difference between being determined and self-confident, and believing that you are destined for greatness.[/quote]
