<p>GM & FG (re: #67/68) - Of course the comment is silly. I was merely pointing out that IF the support provided by the lady in the article was not warranted (because HS students should learn to take of themselves) then private schools and the like are equally unwarranted because those students sure aren’t paying for their private school tuition! (Or are we doing one of those class warfare things, where the rich send their kids off to professionals for development and the less wealthy are told to “suck it up and compete.”)</p>
<p>That said, I do think it’s up to each family to decide what’s best for their students … Octomom being a possible exception I guess.</p>
