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?

I have no reason to think anybody is until they do or say something racist. Sending your kids to private school- despite accusations to the contrary- is not proof of racism.

She specifically told me she picked this because it was in "my area". I do not live in NYC so this would not be "my area". Why doesn't she pick a place in "her area"?

No you originally sent it because you thought it was in my area and it is not and you have no clue about this school. I don't know anything about this school. It might be a high level dance school and not the normal dance studio.

I have to be honest -- I'm fuzzy on geography and I honestly didn't realize that long island and NYC were that distant from each other (roughly comparable to where I live in NH to Boston now I realize) -- I think those of us that don't live in that area tend to lump everything in as "new york city' when the reality is quite different -- I probably would have made the same mistake.

I do not think anyone called anyone racist.
The poster asked what made a quality school or sports program.
There must be some kind of history here to be questioned like that.

I think it would depend on his level of interest.
