[quote=Anonymous][quote]PP, it's pretty easy to hide behind anonymity. Maybe it's one person or one post, but maybe it's many. One can't know for sure, but I've also noted that there certainly seems to be a concerted theme and tone to the anti-Basis postings, as the "accusatory" poster noted. Perhaps the accusations were over the top, but it does make one wonder.

[b]The "accusatory" poster raised a valid point - if you aren't interested in Basis and aren't sending your child there then why such strong interest in trashing Basis or Basis parents and boosters? Like she or he said, it simply doesn't make sense. [/b]

Normal folks just make their informed decision and move on with it. Is it really necessary to insult parents for choosing to send their children to Basis (or any other school for that matter)? I think not.[/quote]

You really don't get it.

There are a lot of people who are interested in Basis and care about Basis. Several posters, as evident on this very thread, have valid concerns that Basis is not considering what makes the school system in DC different than in Tucson. Several people want to discuss those concerns. Several other people want Basis threads that ignore those concerns and extoll the excellence that they think Basis is...before it even opens.

No, the accusatory poster doesn't have a valid point. Further, I can't find any posts that insults parents for choosing Basis, although I see many that question whether Basis is promising these parents something it cannot deliver.

The accusatory poster wants to shut down anyone who doesn't agree with her.

Sorry, she doesn't get to do that.[/quote]
