Same here Afshi…I agree, I do think its the home-environment that makes all the difference. You can go to a fancy school but if your struggling and parents aren’t helping…that money’s going to waste…like milly said, some parents treat school as a glorified babysitting center.
I know people who went to super expensive private schools and really haven’t done much with their lives; on the other hand, I know kids who went to regular public schools, even local city colleges, and are now doing well academically/professionally (as well as being generally decent people).
Just out of curiosity, what were the topics being taught?
