[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow I can totally relate to this article! Especially during the pandemic. “Public schools are closed? Hired a nanny! Send your kids to private, that’s what we’re doing!” Ummmm I don’t have $100k lying around?? You do? And so do several other neighbors on our street?! How??! I thought we were all in similar boats… apparently not. “We’re all in this together” got really old really fast. [/quote]

This. The 'just send your kids to private' sent me over the edge. So now their kids are going to have yet an additional edge - they were in in-person school for 18 months; mine in fully virtual.[/quote]
Stop complaining and get busy. No one is stopping you from making more money. People are dying to come to America. Some become multi millionaires within one generation. Their kids go to private. [/quote]

NP and agree. This original author of the story, I would assume, is not the child of an immigrant. Immigrants' kids often have all this hard wired into us - work while in school, try to get as much scholarship as possible, and the two big ones: 1) choose something practical for work (ie make a decent living) and 2) don't go to a private university unless you are going to be an MD or JD. Obvious choices to anyone *without* a big safety net.[/quote]
