[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My real experience was checking out recess. Holy cow the language and behavior was ... well, not shocking. Completely expected actually. I wouldn’t accept that from my kids. I’ve been around other schools at recess in Arlington, and it was night and day. No thank you.[/quote] What school--JH or MVCS?[/quote] JH[/quote] Are the teachers ok with random adults 'checking out' recess? That seems more alarming to me than the language of the kids. [/quote] You are aware that school playgrounds are visible to [b]millions and millions of people on a daily basis[/b], right?[/quote] Wow! That's a lot of people passing by on a daily basis. [/quote] Plenty of people use that nearby playground and witness the atrocious behavior.[/quote] I and others have told this several times- We have seen and heard on more than one occasion several moms screaming at their kids that they will "beat their black ass" if they don't do what theyre demanding. It is a total 180 from the parenting techniques employed by the educated Del Ray parents. Raise your hand if you want your kid sitting next to those kids.[/quote] I wouldn’t want my kid going home with that kid to be supervised by those parents, but sitting in school together? Why not? The parent isn’t in charge at school, and the kid deserves all the support he/she can get.[/quote] Because these are kids that were raised believing that cursing and hitting are acceptable ways of communicating? Because kids like that don't have a clue about treating people with respect? Because kids like that have been verbally abused for years and will in turn abuse others? You really don't understand that?[/quote] “Those kids?” “Kids like that?” And you really want us to believe that you’re not racist??? Agree with the poster who said - if you don’t think being with kids from households with higher socioeconomic status and higher level of parent education is going to have an effect on kids from lower socioeconomic status and lower levels of parent education, then why would the opposite be true? You can’t claim that an effect will go one way but not the other. It will do your upper middle class (obviously white) child a world of good to be exposed to kids from different backgrounds. And honestly, after the whole nation has learned what DC independent school kids are really like, I’m public all the way now. [/quote] Whatever :roll: Have fun in your make believe world.[/quote]
