[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The entitlement is appalling. As a public school parent, I wonder if I too could sue my child’s school for big bucks for failing to “support” their college applications? This just betrays this family’s (and many families’) belief that 12 years of tuition buys you admission to a selective college. She didn’t even apply to any safeties. Sorry, that’s not how the wider world works.[/quote]

She is a Sidwell lifer. $40Kx 12!
how much did you pay for your public school tuition?[/quote]

Before you make your tuition assumptions, [b]consider that her family probably managed to get substantial financial aid from the school.  [/b]

And then turned around and sued.[/quote]

Why would you assume that?  I think your own biases are showing.[/quote]

[b]Her father is a doctor. I think they live rather comfortably[/b].[/quote]

And so the family claims in their Supreme Court petition that she was entitled to affirmative action, why exactly?[/quote]

Wealth does not eliminate racism. But you knew that. [/quote]
