How did your household income/potential income influence the number of children in your family? Did you and dh stop at a certain number of kids because you wanted to be able to provide certain things for each child?

You didn't state that you bought a uniform for. You stated you paid 100 for each girl. That could mean each girl in the organization which would lead one to believe that a uniform was purchased for each girl in the organization.

Because I stated the price of my dance studio. You have not shown me the one that you drive your friend's child to.

No, she drives the brother to whatever activity her son is doing because the mother is busy at the dance studio.

I was trying to give everyone the benefit of the doubt but I don't know anymore.
I'm going to lunch. I just turned in a huge grant this morning and once I get one of those off my plate I'm useless for a few hours!

 

Yes. We. Did.

The racial percentages in her local zoned high school are almost exactly in line with those of the local population. The percentage of children recieving free lunch, which is a measure of economic diversity, is fairly high. I am not going to post the percentages, because anyone could then enter the name of PA's city and the percentages and a few other key terms on google and get a pretty good idea where PA lives, which I think is up to PA to post.

I will tell you that my kids are in a private school for 6th-9th grade, and the "elite private school" IS more racially diverse than 2/3 of the local middle schools and junior highs and half the local high schools. It is also more economically diverse.
