[QUOTE=id10t;5851405]Quit working as much to make the extra $, send the kids to public school and get involved in your kids education. Volunteer, help the teacher out, be involved. As a bonus, you'll be helping *all* the kids ...

+70,00,000. I went to public school, and did pretty darn well. My education didn't only happen from 0815 to 1515 each day. My parents did an awesome job of making intellectual activities part of our daily routine. Lots of library, museum, and music time. I spent time in the shop learning from my dad and time in the house learning from my mom.

I'm glad I didn't live in the bubble of private school. I learned how to interact with many different types of people, from different socio-economic backgrounds.

In fact, most of my friends who went to private school are socially awkward. ...just my experience, though.
