[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn’t assume it’s jealousy - that’s a pretty self-absorbed assumption.  Maybe if you weren’t so self-involved you would see the situation a bit more clearly. [/quote]

It is pure jealousy and small-mindedness. Small-minded dipsh*ts who can't afford private (or prefer to blow their spare cash on tacky cars, etc.) and have literally zero experience in a private but act like they know everything. 'It's the same everywhere...' or 'Private isn't any different...' How in the eff would YOU know? A public family who transfers to private has first-hand experience in both -- 99.99% of private haters have no experience in private yet act like experts. And spare us all of your fake responses on how your kids go to both and private sucks. You sad saps are broken records.[/quote]

Ok, no.  One reason I don't send my children to private is BECAUSE I have experience with it.  I'm an alum of a DC-area Big 3 and my nieces and nephews go as well.  It's not like I don't know anything.

I'm glad you are happy with your choice.  I hope that you remain happy in the years to come.  Try to remember, though, that many private school parents do not have very *much* experience with private, and what seems great in the first year or in early childhood may not be so pleasing after you've had to deal with any actual problems or the difficulties that older children can have.

I know your type. Grandparents paid your tuition but not enough wealth/inheritance or income to afford to sent your own kids. Yeah I have a friend just like this. She went to Sidwell but never quite made it career wise and did not marry well. She’s jealous as hell but would never admit it. [/quote]
