Every situation is different. I had 12 years of Catholic school. I got
a very good education. I was never abused, but discipline was stricter
than the public schools at the time.

Though they made us follow the rules, I was also taught to think on my
own and make decision, such as much of the religion is BS.

You also have to consider the alternatives. The Philadelphia Catholic
school system was ranked as one of the best in the county, in the top
five. The public school system was ranked in the bottom 10.

When we moved to CT, we kept our kids in Catholic school. After a year,
we realized it was not the same and moved them to the public school.
Our kids were about a year ahead from Philly compared to the schools here.

I agree with that.
