And are you paying for this sort of service?
This person is paying top dollar for a service. If the service is not provided, she has every right to seek a remedy in court.
It doesn't make "Manhattanites (Whatever the fuck that is..) "Douchebags".
Yes it does.
What this mother and you don't understand is the "service" is simply documenting you're willing to pay out the wazzo for preschool therefore broadcasting to "ivy league" schools you will pay out the wazzo then too.
No.
What it "broadcasts" is that the Mother is willing to put in what it takes to get her child into an ivy league school. And the expectation is that the school perform that service. If it does not..then the onus is on the school to refund the money.
