[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone defines "better" differently. Pointless discussion.

I define "better" as "more diverse" so public will almost always be better for us. I just don't want my children going to school with almost all rich children, even if it would mean they got more art class. [/quote]

Totally. I went to one of the elite private schools mentioned in this thread and got an unparalleled education most of the time...but the rape culture was real, and celebrated, and not unrelated to the wealth of my cohort's parents. My kids go to a charter in large part because I do not want them to be exclusively surrounded by big-law and lobbyist progeny. I admit that I may revisit this decision come 6th grade, but right now the diversity outweighs the kiln.  [/quote]

Elite private school has given you the option to play poor urbanite in the charter system. The charter system will most likely take that choice away form your kids.

Rape culture, ha, life is rape culture be it physical, Financial or environmental. In every transaction somebody is doing the fucking or getting fucked. The ones with the biggest profit often means ignoring the other parties wishes/consent. I rather a kid learn it in school then later in life besides people need to teach their daughters not to be easy pickings consensual or not. Let's not pretend that women's freedom of sexual choice isn't a relativity new phenomenon for our species, hell it hasn't even spread to all countries yet. Rape culture is simply people doing what people do with girls not educated about what is really goin on in our sexually repressed culture that swears it isn't. Teach your girls what boys want and how they try to get it while instilling enough self worth that she doesn't try to buy friends with blow jobs and hope for the best. Rape culture isn't going anywhere (and is as old as time) you can only try not to make your daughters the "easy" targets. [/quote]
