[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here is my theory on the situation (well, my situation). I live in a pretty affluent community in Montgomery County. Schools here are considered excellent. All my friends send their kids there. I truly believe the negative reaction from people is mostly their own regret or confusion about whether they are doing the right thing sending their kids to public, when they can EASILY afford to send their kids to a private school. It is a harder pill to swallow when you know very well you have the means to give your child the very best in education, but choose, instead to have nicer cars, vacations, diamond rings. Consequently, they lash out in anger or whatever emotional reaction you might observe.[/quote] Holy cow, pp. if that's your attitude, no wonder people react badly to you. Just as people should respect that you are making the best choice *for your child* you also should respect that people who make different choices for you are doing what they think is best for their child.[/quote]
