Do you think going to a strict private school helps a childs behavior?

I've noticed an impressive change in attitude especially in mine after they were pulled from public school and put into a very traditional Christian school.

Private schools have more structure and responsibility. It doesn't have to be Catholic. As a rule the children come out smarter, more polite and dramatically better prepared for college. If affordable, it's the best gift you can give your children.

@Adogslife: That is painting with an awfully broad brush. Based on the areas I've lived in, "dramatically better prepared for college" is just not true.

@Adogslife: More polite and better behaved for the most part sure I can see that but really public schools are good about education too you just have to be proactive there. A private school is better with more one on one attention
