I never get any value for these tax dollars since my child is in private school. I put her there because she has 'special needs' that the government school couldn't handle. Her special needs are for something better than mediocrity, and her unwillingness to settle for a lousy education in an unsafe environment.

If you consider that it is a competitive world and we as parents need to provide the best for our kids, you are getting a double bang for your money. You are providing your child with a superior education while helping fund a public education system that will ensure that its graduates will never be able to compete with your child. Offense and defense.
