Guilty as charged. My wife being a public school teacher has to have control over our kids education. So she unilaterally decided to enroll our kids in private schools and i’ve been paying for it for the past decade and i don’t have much of a say in the matter even though we go through the motions and act like i do.
Yes I can pay the cash each month, but I can’t really afford it. Due to the expense i’m not contributing much to our savings or my 401K as well as the time lost from the commute of the children that’s on top of the regular work commute.
I’ve talked to to other parents at the schools and i’m not alone. We all seem to have this irrational fear of the public school system as well as a need to control our children’s environment.
