[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ Really, PP.  I often wonder if some of the parents (father and mother) work.  I suspect some live on family trust funds.  They are at every school event during the day, are dressed in very casual attire.  My kids don't know what other parents do.  My son, who is 14, barely knows with his father and I do.  The point is I don't think kids care.  I know I don't.[/quote]

You would like to think the kids don't notice. That's different from what they actually experience. [/quote]

They know more about whose parents are about to split up than what they do for a living.[/quote]

They know about both.  I don't know who these posters are who are saying that kids are unaware of each other's financial situations.  That's just not at all true.  I went to private school and everyone knew who had more and who had less.  I would imagine it wouldn't feel great to be on the side of those who have less, but that probably depends on how different the financial situation is between your family and that of the other families at the school and your child's personality.

I don't think people should be jumping on OP for this post.  Why not consider all aspects of how a change to private could impact your child's life.[/quote]
