Far more so than any person who has been privately educated during their school years.

Your comment that I've put in red though - confused the issue somewhat for me. Doesn't that invalidate to a degree, your feeling that there should be no private education at all - if on one hand you are 'applauding' parents who do that, but then are saying there shouldn't be different educational systems?


There should be a different educational system in the future. I am just applauding parents of what is happening now.

However I applaud parents more who actually give a damn about their children. Not the ones who just dump them at private schools AND public schools but who actually take time with them outside of school like reading them a story.. etc..
