PostNouveau posted:Holy poo poo $28K a year for first grade? You think they got a loving rich people alphabet they're gonna teach him? Do the private school kids learn about better colors? It's a racket. Good colleges give preferential treatment to kids from certain expensive private feeder high schools who do it to kids from elementary who do it to kids from preschool. Most yuppies apply before the kids are even conceived. Sometimes real life is just like mediocre sitcoms. But in all seriousness, one of the primary value-adds about private schools v public is their funding isn't wholly dependent on federal/state administered testing, so your kid isn't just being given a thousand STAAR practice tests the whole year and might actually be taught some subject-specific content, so they can do better on the test that actually matters, the SAT when the time comes. Not that that's worth the cost of a used Lexus, but it's something.

Expensive private schools are just a pipeline to ensure that rich failsons have an avenue for failing upwards their entire lives, with a veneer of plausible deniability that you aren't actively selecting for a certain kind of old money privilege. That's what you're paying for. Like, look at Boris Johnson. Absolutely zero merits as a human being, but he gets to lead the conservative party and be prime minister because he went to the right schools and managed to be the least off-putting of his classmates.

If you marry someone with a child, but shower your own kid with privilege and advantages while letting the other sink or swim on her own, you haven’t really made a family, now have you? You’ve just put a fuckbuddy under contract. He’s the rear end in a top hat, or she should sever, or whatever, depending on which subreddit that came from.

Smirking_Serpent posted:AITA For punishing my daughter on her birthday for getting political? Already been stated, but it's so obvious what actually went down here. A lot of us, myself included, have been where that 12 year old is or at least witnessed it. Patriarch grandpa just gets to spout racist bullshit all night, then any level of resistance gets shut down with "okay no arguing about politics." After the argument stops grandpa continues being a dumb old gently caress, starts an argument again, and no one says anything until he's challenged. gently caress I hated growing up surrounded by Republicans.

AITA for not sending my gifted child to private school because of her sister?quote:My husband and I have twin girls (6F), Kayla and Charlotte. Kayla is exceptionally bright, not through anything that we've done. She was reading fluently before she turned 3, is now able to read books for 11-12 year olds, can do mental arithmetic, and she is insatiably curious and loves learning. Charlotte is very visual and loves painting, which we encourage, but she's not as interested in learning as Kayla and her intelligence is of a different sort to Kayla's. She's good at practical things but she's otherwise at an average level with her peers, which is still great and we're very proud of her!

I dunno that he has some sort of obligation to send his not-kid to expensive schooling but if he can afford it it still makes him kind of a jerk. Lots of couples maintain separate finances in some or all spheres. That's hardly unusual. Due to the language used, I think OP is in a blended family. People in blended families usually demand final say with the kids they bring into the marriage, so it doesn't seem like it's a huge stretch to say that would extend to educational stuff. I can see OP's wife saying that she'll make all decisions about the daughter's schooling, and that would include paying for it. He obviously has no obligation to buy any particular thing for his stepdaughter, but similarly, she and the wife are allowed to complain when he doesn't. Peaceful Anarchy posted:The "average" private school in the US (78% of them) is a religious school so that's not surprising. Their purpose is not a better education, their purpose is segregation and avoiding as many regulations as possible. Almost all of the religious private schools here are catholic, so in addition to not being reliant on government funding, they are also propped up by the catholic church (not that that stops them from year-long money grubbing, of course) which as you say allows them to largely ignore benchmarks set by the government, so no matter how bad their numbers are or how many instances of sexual misconduct are filed, they almost never close down. They are also allowed not to teach sex ed or evolution regardless of state standards to ensure a steady supply of republican voters after graduation.

Stg, I thought she was objecting because it was a swear word or something racist/sexist/homophobic/etc. Maybe I'm just not up on the Cool New Club Drugs (...she says, as if she ever was), but "dro" doesn't obviously sound like a drug, it sounds like a name from GoT or something. ESH, but she sucks more for fussing about what the school will think if her niece and nephew talk about a cat named after a drug.

Smirking_Serpent posted:AITA for arguing with my girlfriend about her washing raw chicken? Unless you buy discount chicken from the dollar store and you're washing off a carpet of slime you don't really need to wash chicken like that even then, that won't be the problem to avoid getting sick. That said, anyone not washing their hands like 10+ times while cooking and changing between raw meat, produce, and cooking equipment is probably someone who wears special pants after home cooked meals in case they get the gurglespurts.

I dunno that he has some sort of obligation to send his not-kid to expensive schooling but if he can afford it it still makes him kind of a jerk. This is a situation I confronted recently. My kid is in a $25k/year private high school... top 3 in the state... but only because he has an 85% scholarship. My girlfriend has mentioned moving in, and has a high-school aged daughter. She said she wouldn't like it if my kid was in the private school, and hers was bussing it to public school. I told her I agreed, that would piss me off. And then I didn't follow up the hints that she wanted to move in with me, heh. Neither she nor I can afford the full cost of this school for her daughter, and I'm not pulling my son out to make things fair. Just the way it is.

We were looking through an old photo album of her as a teen and she had a different nose. She admitted to me she had plastic surgery as she was bullied a lot because of her nose at school. I was very accepting as it's not like she got full on Barbie surgery and she just fixed an issue she had with herself. I understand why people get nose jobs and other stuff due to self esteem problems.

GORDON posted:This is a situation I confronted recently. I don't assume everyone is a rational actor, but I feel like the scholarship itself is the end of the argument. Were he to lose it you'd have a major struggle to find some way to scrounge up $22k/yr so he could keep going (like if it was senior year and it was the difference between Harvard and a state school) The whole "everyone needs to meet in the middle" is the most widely abused excuse for a lot of things by people who just want to see someone else hurt so they don't have to deal with the reality they aren't the world's greatest person.
