[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are so many people who pop into the forum for private schools to campaign for public school. I spend a lot of money on education and it's where I choose to spend my money. My kids are happy and love school. That wasn't the case when we were in public, even though the school was highly rated on "Great Schools". The campus wasn't secure, there were kids throwing pencils and other stuff around the class, and one teacher had almost 30 first graders.

Do some people love public school? I'm sure. But it wasn't my jam and the money I spend makes the lives of my kids - and frankly my own life - much happier. If your kid loves public and the education is working for your family - I love that for you. If someone wants to live paycheck to paycheck to pay for private school - I am going to assume there is a really valid reason for that family. [/quote]

+1 Honestly people have their reasons and pros and cons and those may not make sense to other people. Just like some people say flying business class is absolutely worth it/essential for their trip and others think it’s a colossal waste of money for an 8 hour period of time. The truth is that either one can be true or justified and that’s why we decide for ourselves and not for other people. My kids are in public and we have experienced all the good and the bad that comes with it. My nieces are in private and have experienced all the good and the bad at their school, as well. Extreme opinions on the subject just indicate that the opinion holder has diminished ability to recognize and admit nuance. [/quote]

+2 Well said, both PP's. [/quote]
