[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Clearly the answer most people are giving is this: "Children from my own child's school are poised."  And for many, this addition: "Children from rivals of my child's school are not poised."

Unfortunately, this seems to be just another vehicle for people to promote/bash schools indiscriminately.

Here's my challenge: Does anyone think the school your child currently attends produces grads who are generally NOT poised?  In other words, is anyone here prepared to knock her own child's school?[/quote]

Why on earth would we pay good money to a school that we think makes our kids awkward and rude, and lacking in manners?

I think this question might produce more negative answers if you asked a more specific question.  For example, "does your school teach your children to shake hands when they are introduced to a new person?"  Then you might get "of course not, that would be pretentious in a child" or "yes, they drill them on this, because it is good manners, which is essential for a livable and polite society".  [/quote]
