[quote=Anonymous]Why is this thread evolving into a "anti-YY" pissing context? 
I am a YY parent -- No Chinese connection in our family. 
Honestly, I am very happy to have a non-Chinese administrator at YY (and a great one at that!). 
Would I want my kid to go to a Chinese school?? NO. I want my kid to go to an AMERICAN school in Chinese. If she can pick up a bit of Chinese, Chinese culture when she is there, it's great. If she does not, what's the problem? If she does but never uses it again, so what?? Do you use everything you learned in school?? 
The bonus? She is in a GREAT PUBLIC school and in the process is learning something new and unusual for her background.

and FYI: about 1/3 of the kids in my daughter's class have some connection to China: parents speaking Chinese (Chinese parents but some American parents who lived there for years), adopted kids whose parents (some ALSO Chinese) want to keep a connection to China.

You don't like YY?  Move on! 
The WL is very long and a LOT of people are clamoring to get in... [/quote]
