[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’re been asked for $100k ($20k for 5 years, more specifically) 3 times. Unlucky to be at 2 schools and 1 church during capital campaigns. Your income may put you in that category or they made a mistake based on something else. 
Whatever it is, it’s not a big deal. Commit a smaller amount and move on. [/quote]

Im trying to fathom why I feel so hurt and angry when you guys are right and we can just say no. I guess I wanted to feel appreciated for scraping together full tuition for 5 kids, [b]not to mention putting my younger kids in the school’s pipeline amidst crashing birth rates, but clearly those efforts mean nothing.[/b] I’ve heard that many more applicants for k this year are only children and i wonder if that’s actually an advantage because families can funnel all those resources fully to the school and they don’t even have to bother educating anybody![/quote]

Wow, this level of entitlement is unbelievable even on this forum. And I speak as a private school parent. Of course it was so selfless for you to have five children and deciding to send them to a private school. What an effort. [/quote]
