>>That would reduce amount available to educate my kids, but I still support it.<<

is that 1. b/c your school system is good and, therefore, there is no reason to leave and 2. if things did go badly you have an alternative?

btw, i do think the public school system is weak and am not supporting its current apathetic state. however, yanking their best students, taking lots of resources and having kids bear the brunt of the cost of such a program should be, imho, a last resort.

there are other alternatives. i think mike has pointed out that those would take parental effort.

you will do what is necessary to best educate your kid. i believe in doing the sdame without reducing the education, albeit currently poor, education of other kids. they are kids, too. just as important to the world as our own if we step out of our little box...
