[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My feelings are hurt because I’m left out of the secret moms clique.

Jk. I’m not an ACPS parent but dang if there aren’t a lot of people complaining instead of finding something productive to better the schools. [/quote]

I have another one based on this comment - how because of the entrenched leadership (and the community’s fawning over it) it is impossible to do anything to improve ACPS meaningfully.  Said as a former ACPS parent / current Alexandria resident [/quote]

Run for a position on the school board. Everyone complains but no one is willing to run for office.[/quote]

So unless you run for school board you can't complain. By this logic if you don't run for Governor or President you have no right to complain.

This is also an extremely privileged statement. If a economically disadvantaged parent complains, is this your response to them too? How about a parent who works an hourly job? Or two hourly jobs?

This is poor logic at best and disgustingly privileged at worst. [/quote]

Oh, please. It’s not the “economically disadvantaged parents” who endlessly complain. It’s the spoiled wealthy parents (most of whom will claim they’re not actually wealthy) who throw the endless fits and try to use “poor parents” as wedges to get their own way. No one with a brain is buying it.[/quote]
