Public. ##!$ a private school.

No where near thinking about having kids, but if I ever have any, they're definitely going to public. I want them to learn the difference between the good and the bad, and not to mention the exposure of what goes on out there.

As far as life lessons, private schools aren't as vanilla as some of you people think, a lot, and I mean a lot of things went down just as much, if not more, than some nearby public schools.
So that reasoning is bunk.
I'm putting my kids through Catholic private schools from kindergarten to high school.

EXACTLY!

I want my child to get educated in academics as well as life. And wheres a better place to learn about life than in a Public School? Of course you can learn about life in a private school, but a PS is more raw IMO.

But who knows. Maybe my view on that may change when that time to send them to school actually arrives. At the end of the day it all depends.

I've been to both. I'd want my children to have a similar experience.

But there are so many variables (e.g.: location, my finances, and what my wife would think).

I'd rather them go to public schools. It's free and as long as you live in a good neighboorhood they can get a first rate education.

 what kinda life lessons do you need as a kid? These "Life Lessons" should be from parents raising their child in the properly. Life Lessons are learned in college when you're let free from the restrictions of your parents or guardians. I'm not saying all public schools are bad, but here in America or at least here in CA, the vast majority of them are horrible. Plus kids will be kids regardless of public or private the important thing is the school having the power to get rid of the trouble makers.
