[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I still want OP to come back here and defend her decision not to use the same schools as her neighbors. What is so bad about the neighborhood where she chose to live and raise a family that she cannot even consider sending her child to school with the children in the neighborhood? [/quote]

Defend. LOL.

More than 50 percent of students in the city have parents who have made the same choice. OP worded it in a way that is easy to pick on in a way that I know you wouldn't have the courage to do to many of the families that have reached the same conclusion.[/quote]

OP admits she's having "severe anxiety" over where her child will attend preschool, has a list of demands that are very difficult to meet, and what appears to be a shortlist of only a handful of highly popular schools that she'll consider. OF COURSE she's getting picked on. She wants something she cannot afford, and that at least 75% of the parents on this board cannot afford, which is an easy, convenient, sure bet of a free preschool. [/quote]

Just to be clear, it has gone beyond "afford" at this point. Even at the "good" schools, most ECE spots are taken by siblings. Even those that can afford a "good" school still need luck.[/quote]
