Is the incorrect French meant as parody?

More polite, friendly and able to speak comfortably with adults. Private schools have kids doing public speaking from a young age and it shows. It could be something special at our private school or it could apply to most privates. This has been my experience. I’m not sure some of these people replying have the experience of both private and public educations.
+1. My DCs attend a private school outside the DMV area and that holds true here too.

My DD (private school) can burp louder than any other kid
I know - is that a sign of refinement that I was unaware of?

My kids are quiet and not gabbing with adults like they are mini adults. So maybe you couldn't tell in less than 10 mins.
Oh but I could. There are many other tells.
Wow, so creepy that this person is spending this much time thinking about other people’s kids. Gross.
