[quote=Anonymous][quote]So, please tell me--how are you supporting other people by prepping your child so that s/he has a potential unfair advantage? Especially against children whose background is similar to yours? [/quote] Is prepping the unfair advantage or higher socioeconomic status? The latter, higher SES, affords and begets [b]bigtime prepping [/b]with books, tutors, camps, multiple incognito attempts at all the standardized tests, successfull petitions for accommodations in schools and on standardized tests, drug abuse with "viagra" for the brain. The latter also facilitates residential zip codes with wealthier schools, better teachers and higher academically (prepped) oriented peer mix. [/quote]
