I will never send my children to a certain school for notoriety. Never. They go to the school they do because I love it. It's private but it's definitely NOT prestigious. I've got enough friends who've taken that route and pulled their kids out or wished they had not due to finances but due to the mentality and the way it shaped their children. They and I can't stress enough that the education in most cases is more focused than others, but that isn't everything and sometimes that in itself is damaging.

I look at my husband and all the children in his family. They went to good catholic schools, not prestigious ones and they got where they are with brains and hard work and I am proud of that way more than I would be if it was due to name dropping *shakes head*
