[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s not at all like buying a car. If you are wringing your hands over whether private school is worth the money, that’s a sign you are either at the wrong school or you should send your child to public. We decided private was not “worth it” for elementary but have zero regrets sending DCs to private for upper grades. [/quote] I don't like the "if you have to ask" mentality that often comes up on this forum. Private school tuition is a huge sacrifice for a lot of us. I can feel that a private school is the best option for my kid, but still wring hands over what else we're giving up - whether that's savings, travel, having a parent at home, whatever. Maybe a better analogy than car buying: I could take Metro to work, but I mostly drive. Driving makes the most sense for my life and schedule, but I still wince at the cost and wonder if I should make Metro work. Some people in my same situation would Metro.[/quote]
