[quote=Anonymous]Education and childhood are a journey, not just the means to a destination like a name brand college or a high paying job. It matters to me how my child is doing from pre-K and 2nd and 5th to middle school and through the teenage years. At some points, it means sheltering them and at others it means exposing them to more grown up ideas sooner and more in depth than public schools can. I care a lot about my child having multiple adults he can turn to with issues he might not be willing/able to come to me. An independent school lets me pick where I am most comfortable, rather than having to make my preferences fit a large system that has to accommodate lots of others with different preferences. For me, it just means that I don't have any uses for $40k that bring me more "utility" than finding the best education setting I can for my child. Not everyone can afford to make that choice easily, but for those who can it is a simple one. [/quote]
