Public school is awful. Just watching all the stuff thats going on the news larely... I don't think I want my kids to go to school. I would rather homeschool. I wish I was homeschooled!

Only thing with homescholling is if your going to do that, your child should be enrolled in tons of out of the home activities.

[lola_phyne]

private school is awesome. of course i would send mine there. When i have some many years from now. Public school likes nuts. But it's fun.

[MissBehavior]

If I can afford the tuition, your damned right they will.

Higher quality education for my children = :y::y:

Only if they ask me to.

The drugs they can get in public school are a lot less addictive.

Out of curiosity, how many of you who have answered actually went to private school?

[Erica]

Absolutely not. I went to private school, and yes, the level of education is much higher, there is more structure, more opportunity if you make good use of your experience there, etc., but I found the environment to be really unhealthy. At least at an all-girls private school. I might consider sending them to a co-ed private school. I went to both private and public, and my best experience was going to the mini school at a public school. Enriched learning, three trips a year (camping, Blackcomb, and June trips).

[NeVeRLooKBacK]

the hell if my kids are goin to school

Erica i totally understand where you're coming from and I believe your brother went to the same school as i did and graduated as a prefect? a high prefect to add to that?

I have experienced both co-ed and all boy enviornments and i must say both systems have their flaws, psychological tormenting, and drama, but the fact that you have those connections and the fact you successfully graduated from the school is a whole new story which will tag along with you for the rest of your life. i understand you left the school early, but i'm closely aquainted with many people from that school who still remember and respect you (and your family).

i feel a sense of anger towards the whole system you've probably been forced into like myself. I hated it. People from my school remember me an underachiever. but i got by anyways with honours and took all the critique and shit for all the spoilt rich kids. As long as i can go back to the reunion proud that i did my best in making the best of my life i'm happy. fuck the drama of high school we all had to go through it.

French Immersion: The poor man's private/white folk school.

[MissBehavior]

[decypher]

Kids who get all sheltered into a private school all of there teen's, as soon as they shipped off to college they explode into the world of sex, drugs and alcohol. I would find it better for my kids to grow up sooner then later in a public school, learn to be responsible etc etc.

[miss.myra]

I went to both public and private...

The thing is, I don't think kids really care about the value of a good education- they want to have fun. A private school would open up so many doors, but then again, public school also teaches a lot of valuable lessons about the real world that are pretty critical.
