[quote=Anonymous]I feel the kids who put others down like that are just badly raised kids, AAP or otherwise. If they weren't in AAP, they would find something else to put other kids down. My kids are in AAP, and we're Asian. They have always been picked on by this group of 3 non Asian, non AAP kids at their center school for their cultural differences. They made fun of my kids' ethnic lunches. When grandparents were visiting from abroad I took them to school for an event my kids were participating in and DCs told me later that these kids mocked them because the grandparents didn't speak fluent English, calling them illiterate (they both have science degrees). These kids have also referred to my kids as cattle, because we are vegetarian. These kids are from extremely affluent families. We, our neighborhood, and base school are humble in comparison. In this case, the superior attitude is due to social and cultural differences. I wasn't surprised when I found out who those kids were: one of the fathers is the most obnoxious loudmouth I've ever come across. The fruit doesn't fall very far from the tree.

I have raised my kids to respect everyone irrespective of their differences and their friends are the same (both AAP and non). I don't believe it is AAP. It's just the kids and their upbringing.[/quote]
