[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So this thread devolved into people who dislike private school kids bashing on private school parents.

Typical DCUM drivel. I bet with our anonymity that Jeff provides here, half of you would STFU and be too chicken chicken s**t to look me or my kid in the eyes with their 1500, near perfect GPA and tell them to buck up because their privilege is ending

Sorry (ok not sorry) I can afford private school. [/quote]

I’m trying to decide whether or not to switch my kids to private. Private school families are the ones who look down at public and feel superior to them, not the other way around. That attitude turns me off. I’m also convinced that going to a private school will not help my smart athletic kid get into a better college. I have kids who will do well in any environment. It is your exact attitude that you have just shown in a public forum that makes others want to stick up for their public school kids.

I will likely send my daughter to private. Real reason? I will only admit this on an anonymous forum is so she can marry well. She is very pretty and I know she will be popular with the boys. Would rather she not mingle with riffraff of public.[/quote]

You have to be a troll. No one is marrying their high school sweetheart. I can’t believe this even needs to be said. [/quote]

Of course not. I was half joking. I would prefer she not mingle with the public school bad boys and hang out in a different crowd in college. Yes, that is a thing. Rich private school kids hang out together in college.

I hung out with the cool bad boys in high school. I want her to have a different experience.[/quote]

I think you have a strange view of rich...because I doubt your daughter will be hanging out with the truly rich crowd.  No one in the truly rich private school crowd that only hangs out together at college ever sent their kid to one second of public school.  And yes...the snobbery continues like crazy at the Ivy leagues...to most college kids coming from US and international boarding schools and even top NYC and LA privates...Big3 privates aren't much different than a public school in their mind.[/quote]
