[quote=Anonymous]Call my kids coddled if you will, but I'm personally thrilled that we can afford to send them to a top notch private school where there are no weapons, fist fights, metal detectors, and violent classmates. I appreciate the small classes, the attention paid by teachers who don't have to teach to the test, the involved families, and the excellent facilities. I like the responsiveness of teachers and administrators to my emails. Would my kids have done well at a public school? Probably. But I have no desire to have my kids grow up in a learning environment where cops are called to the school regularly. And frankly, it is laughable when you live in Bethesda or Chevy Chase, live in a $1.5M house, and think that your own public school-attending kids are not coddled. Give me a break.[/quote]
