[quote=Anonymous]Amongst my peers in private I felt so stupid. I worked so incredibly hard to be in the middle of the pack ranking wise. I was not stupid and went on to a top undergraduate and Ivy for graduate. College WAS a walk in the park compared to my private high school years. I appreciate the college prep of my private but not what it did to my self esteem. I always felt so dumb. The competitive nature, braggy peers with even worse parents, make me question private for my own children. Self esteem and happiness carries weight in my book. If public makes a child happy and feel confident with their academics, well then that would be the best choice. I think private is great for some but not all. [/quote]
