For some reason our public has 1/2 days on Wednesdays. Their rationale for not having it Friday's, it that everyone would have their kid miss the entire day to go to their weekend getaway. Instead people pull their kids out at random times on Friday to go to their Tahoe houses(I'm in ca) and it disrupts the classroom to continually retrieve and pull out children from the class.

Private school is better for the small class size. This can't be disputed. Many PS teachers are better, more experienced, creative and better able to reach all kinds of kids. They have to. It seems to me that the smartest kids do well in PS. The (m) average kids really don't get what they need in a class of 28+.

His wife was institutionalized long term and he never divorced her. But, he was very wealthy and basically treated us like his stepchildren.

honestly, i wouldn't envy this. i am curious how a regular, intact UMC family can fleece a private school for FA. [ Reply | More

NP We don't fleece anyone. We make it work, barely. Some years some FA, other years not. Vacations with family. Education is our priority. That is pretty much the long and short of it. [ Reply | More

That's not fleecing anyone. Grandparents often pay for tax reasons too, tax free transfer of wealth and all. [ Reply | More

I went to Trinity for a few thousand, and then did four years at Andover on full FA. Got an exceptional education for pretty much nothing, financial aid is a really beautiful thing. [ Reply | More

Why do you assume that they "can't" do these things without TV? It just makes it easier. My kids never watch TV at home, but often have entertainment like this for long trips. Not because they'd fall apart without it. [ Reply | More

A new study out in JAMA Pediatrics this month shows more TV use as a kid correlate with less wellbeing and more depression as an older kid. Also, older studies show a definite link between TV use in infancy and ADHD. MD mom here. [ Reply | More
