[QUOTE="satellitedriver, post: 780412, member: 1664"] [COLOR=darkgreen][B]This quote from the article got my goat. [/B][/COLOR] "Private schools by their [U][B]very nature discriminate[/B][/U]. Their students are literally the chosen ones — special, better. This sort of thinking has a way of [U][B]weaving itself into the fibers of a family[/B][/U] and into the thinking of the children, particularly young boys in a male culture where even the slightest deviations from the narrowest concepts of normality are heretical." [B][COLOR=darkgreen]My parents sacrificed, saved and worked their ass off to give their 6 children 12yrs of private Catholic education. Dad worked two jobs and Mom worked as a rotating shift nurse. The school costs took all the extra money and left little for any form of luxury. Racist? Chosen, special and better? Not even close. The Nun's and Priest's instilled in us just the opposite view and would not tolerate that type of thinking or behavior. Discipline was sure and swift. We were taught to excel in our talents, but not at a cost to others. The Motto of our High School was; "It is not permitted to be mediocre" ---( sounded fancier in Latin)---. Our educational foundation was a key component in the further successes in my, and my siblings, life. [/COLOR][/B] [/QUOTE]
