[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one cares where your kids go to school.[/quote] Oh yes, the public school parents most definitely do. I think it is both jealousy and insecurity on their part. What baffles me is why they feel it is okay to be snarky. [/quote] Private school parents don’t care, it’s the public school parents that want to debate you.[/quote] I'd also say there can be a philosophical divide that creates tension that isn't based in jealousy. My spouse's family has a long history of public school involvement and leadership. My spouse and spouse's sibling are both high earners with some generational wealth but neither considers private school and can be judgmental of those who do, seeing them as part of an elitist "problem." I'm fairly neutral (on my side we've had recent kids at Sidwell, GDS, and MD and VA publics schools) but have seen many people in this area with backgrounds and beliefs like my spouse's. [/quote]
