[quote=Anonymous]No one has addressed this angle yet, I don't think. With older kids (middle school and beyond), you need to think about the peers your kids will be in school with. Combine money with parents who aren't very engaged (and those parents exist), and you get some unsupervised kids with a lot of freedom and a lot of resources. So connect the dots on what that means. I've been genuinely shocked at some of the stuff that's gone on and when I talk to my friends with kids in public, it's less prevalent in public. Also, I don't think it can be much fun to be "the poor kid" in one of these privates. We don't fall into that bucket, but I do think these kids have a distorted sense of reality at times. The lack of true economic diversity is a negative, in my opinion.[/quote]
