Fairfax County Public Schools want military kids to feel embarrassed that they are military kids, that they're privileged, or that it's something they shouldn't want to be or should be ashamed of. https://wtop.com/fairfax-county/202...-school-game-labels-military-kids-privileged/
It might look like it to an outsider but privileged is the last thing they are with very few acceptions. I went to a military school from 7th grade thru 12th. There are a few cadets that might be considered privileged but not many. I remember a few of my classmates getting new Cadillacs for graduation. That was back in 1952. The majority of the cadets were from broken (divorced) families or families that didn't have the desire or the time to have a child in their life.
I wonder if Fairfax county schools are returning the millions of dollars they get each year for kids of military stationed in the county. (Though I don't wonder much......)
I don't think that is what they are talking about. They are talking about children of military parents. I am retired military. My children went to four different schools prior to college. They never really had a home town or a large group of long time friends. It was a new set of friends every few years. Plus, they were seldom around relatives except the immediate family. I certainly never considered them privileged. If there is one thing I regret about being career military, it was the effect on my children. Fortunately, they are turned out well adjusted and happy with their life.
As has been thoroughly discussed in the other thread on this topic, your interpretation is not necessarily the correct one.
