Yes, but I think trashing of any school (public or private) by any parent (public or private) is tiresome and pointless. But then again, I guess that's the point of this board for some people. [ Reply | More

It's amazing to me that a friend would make a negative comment about your dc's school. Not much of a friend, IMHO. [ Reply | More

I know. I am really tired of the whole situation. Been going on for the past 3 years. Our dc's are not even friends anymore and I still have to listen to it. [ Reply | More

Is there a strong reason to maintain the friendship if your dc's aren't friends anymore? [ Reply | More

Then I would consider letting the friendship go. I'm at that point in my life where I don't need or have time for unnecessary or negative relationships (God knows why I'm here...). [ Reply | More

The only negative things I hear about my dc school is on UB. In person people say only nice things to our face, although there are tons of negative things one could say about the school. [ Reply | More

It goes both ways. I am a public school mom and have never said a negative word about any school but have had to suffer other people putting down my DCs school and public education in general. [ Reply | More
