[quote=Anonymous]Please don’t beat yourself up or feel sad. Instead, focus your energies on making sure they excel academically at their school, and on spending as much time with them outside of school as possible. You are their home base and support. I also went to a completely average public school. We were poor and couldn’t afford anything else. I was always told to work and study hard- and honestly wanting to get out of my situation provided great motivation. I went to an ivy for college, then another top tier graduate school, and “got out.” We now send our child to private school. That being said, have you explored financial aid options at private schools? I know of many families at our private who would never be able to afford it without very generous aid. [/quote]
