[quote=Anonymous]See, you all should have been clever like me. I had the foresight to live in a really crappy school district. Nobody asks why we chose private. Anyone around here who can get out, does. In all seriousness, I reduce the envious evil-eye by immediately sharing that we got major financial aid, for which we are very grateful. Then the evil-eye turns to intrigued. I think a lot of families have no idea of the financial aid that's available. It's such a sensitive topic. Nobody asks their neighbor why their neighbor chose to buy a Jaguar and not a Toyota, but that's because cars are not the same as the well-being of our children. Nobody wants to hear the ugly answer that more money frequently can buy a better education. Not always, and it depends on the options that are available as far as public school goes. But often, yeah.
