Lived in Knoxville for 3 years. In TN, many parents' choice is between supporting public school and educating their children.

Of course this is devastating to the kids whose parents can't afford private school, but if it was my child, I can't say what I'd do.

Is it more morally correct to simply live in a wealthy town where the public schools were excellent?

Like move to one for that reason? I'd say no. Or it's at least cowardly

I think one is morally obliged to invest help those in need, and not pay for lifeboats. seems simple to me

I'm not trying to pile on, I'm just thinking aloud and I appreciate the pushback

Some folks work to help others in impoverished areas- expecting them to also leave their kids uneducated is too much bravery.

Others don't do anything but send their kids to an excellent public school in their already privileged neighborhood, They are not brave.
