I'm sorry you took all of this so personally as to make so many assumptions about me. It bothered you to the extent that you wanted to prove your worth to me by listing your graduate/post-graduate accomplishments. Something no one else in this thread has done.

I have no children. Sorry you felt the need to attack something that doesn't exist.

Did I take a page out of your playbook?

Well I've yet to feel the need to prove that I'm worthy of your approval by listing my accomplishments.

Why did you feel the need to do so? Please be specific.

Your needs are not my concern. However, your ideas about secondary education are bad, and combatting them has become my entertainment for the evening.

My needs may not be your concern, but my approval of you certainly appears to be.

Otherwise why would you have told me about your PhD? Should I continue to assume you were feeling insecure, or will you provide another reason? I've asked numerous times.

I thought it would shut you up. Boy was I wrong.

Well I for one would welcome you to voice the reasoning behind this conclusion.

Very serious, yes.

How could I be so stupid. You are clearly above that. You were born better.

So, the government schools aren't great? frick me running. I love that public school indoctrination. Hell, a couple of weeks ago a friend's kid had a great assignment at BR High. The project was "create a bumper sticker to explain why Christopher Columbus was a racist". What the hell is wrong with that? Sounds great...

Why would you say such a thing. Are you assuming that I think that? Is it because you also assume that I went to private school? You thought that I considered myself better than you so you hoped to impress me by telling me about your PhD?

Do I have this correct?

No, my personal narrative is an example of why your premise is flawed. My mistake was in expecting you to understand this on its face. It seemed obvious.

And why are you so obsessed with this point anyways? You have gone far afield from your original argument and are now focused on me (which is another example of me winning ...).

I gotta say, this private school and boarding school grad feels pretty damn smart. My kids go to a top 10 academic HS school in my State. They are killing it academically and socially. The music program is insanely good (that's our "thing"). And it's all free. I pocket that 30k every year. So I take them to school in luxury cars, build them a music room addition to the home, and take them on fancy vacations. London, Kauai, BC, 30A.Every year somewhere nice. They excel. I pocket the cash. Everybody wins.

Why does that make you so mad ?

Oh, so all this time you thought that I was unaware that someone from a public school was capable of getting a PhD? Is that what you're saying?

I'm saying that quality public schools deliver a second-to-none education at a better value than private schools.

That's what I said in the very first post I made in this thread, which you conveniently ignored.

So you think that telling me about your PhD is an adequate way to make that argument? Do you think that is quality reasoning on your part?

Your mistake is that you assume my intention was to persuade you. Indeed, it was not. Rather, my intention was to derail your argument. To this end, I have been a dramatic success.

Cheers.
