[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Long story short: A few (not all!) private school parents chose Big 3s for the bragging rights and/or because they thought Larlo would be a shoe-in to, nay almost entitled to, a top college. They didn't count on Larlo's classmates outcompeting him. These parents certainly don't want to take responsibility for their own decisions. So they come out guns blazing against public school kids. It's not a good look.[/quote] You are the same, identifiable public school parent who likes to troll the privates. You always call our kids "Larlo". That is not a good look for YOU. It's a fact there is grade deflation, particularly in the top privates, and it is backfiring on our kids in the new era of the common app and grade deflation. The fact that you take pleasure in this says something disturbing about you PP. We are living with the results of our decision to send our kids to private- good or bad, so why the nastiness and anger towards private school parents and kids? I don't wish public school families ill or denigrate them. Public school has a different set of pros and cons and challenges. Maybe time for some self-reflection PP. [/quote]
