Catholic school kids are as much of a mixed bag as public school kids. People really are generalizing way too much. There is no magical 100% accurate algorithm for sorting bad kids from good. You just have to evaluate each potential friend on their own merits as an isolated individual.

Are you serious?? The Catholic private school kids are the worse!! My kid has multiple friend groups and the kids who have the fake IDs, who drink like crazy, vape, and with parents who serve alcohol at parties are predominantly the Catholic school kids.

My kids’ friends in Catholic schools are straight arrows. Their public school friends, too. Obviously, like most things, YMMV. You generalize too much.
