[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are public school parents so insecure & nosy?[/quote]
in case you weren't aware, this is the college forum, and public school parents read and post on here, too.[/quote]

There needs to be a separate college forum for private school parents.[/quote]

Why? I'm a private school parent (who also had another kid go through public school) and I disagree, so I'm curious why you think this. Does it bother you that public school students apply to and get accepted at many of the same schools as private school students? Do you really believe that your situation is so different from other families? [/quote]

Apparently the private school parents think their kids are better than everyone else.  That's obviously not the case.  Same thing once at college.  There will be plenty of kids who go to a state school or a school in the T40-120, they will "step down a tier" so they can maximize merit if they are not full pay or full FA.   In the real world most of us work with people who went to a variety of schools.  Your boss might even have gone to a no-name/much lower ranked school than you.  It's just how life works.  There are smart talented, motivated people everywhere---not every one can go to an elite college or elite HS.  Yet somehow they still manage to do well in life[/quote]
