44. Inequitable . . . but Inevitable
The idea that all those kids can get equal opportunity is laudable but not practical. We all have our own interests here, and mine is to get the best education I can for MY kid. Your interest is obviously the same.

To say that one sees the inequity is only to say one has identified the issue. Yes, it's inequitable. But are the parents who complain about it sacrificing things for their kids' education? Are they doing homework, paying for tutors, talking to their kids about their classes?
