"Having money does not make a good parent"
I couldn't agree more. In fact, I grew up in an extremely poor family, and my mother is an excellent mother!
But I also know how difficult it can be for a poor, single parent.
My point was that those who would choose to pay for their children to attend a Montessori school are a self selecting group, and I am not confident that if you took an average public school and turned it into a Montessori school that it would work as well as your private school. (It might very well work better than an average public school, though.)
- nkrisc 11y agoI'd suggest that while having more money allows an already good parent to give more opportunities to their child, a good parent that doesn't have money is not then a bad parent, but instead a good parent with a limited ability to give their child more opportunity.
