[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone else experiencing some weirdness at preschool? Parents you are friendly with acting aloof especially after bumping into each other at the same ongoing school event?

This process is so strange.[/quote]

Are you at a feeder? [/quote]

Yes. Does that make it better or worse? 😂[/quote]

No, I think it's just expected behavior.  It's self-selecting -- people who go to feeders want to go to the top tier schools (and specific ones at that -- some won't settle for anything less than a Trinity, Brearley or Collegiate) and there's unfortunately a quota.  I'm sure you are normal, but there are others who make this their whole personality.

The snobbery can be unpleasant. For example, asking why would anyone send their child to PS6. [/quote]

Jack Grubman's kids went there after 92Y...[/quote]

Sometimes it is not just snobbery. I heard a mom whose dc got accepted at a single sex TT but started bad mouthing other specific co-Ed TT. Literally saying why would anyone go to this co-ed TT when it is cutthroat and etc.

I suspect her ego was hurt that her dc did not get into that specific TT that she she started bad mouthing.

I also saw some parents spin lies saying that they got into TTs but turned it down even though people know they were waitlisted. [/quote]

This is why I’m *trying* not to listen to anything said by a parent who doesn’t have a child in the schools I’m applying to. There is so much noise and sour grapes. [/quote]
