“The only problem with your theory is that schools check out the students beforehand.”
My son was rejected from a brooklyn pre-school because they “checked” with a neighbor who told them we owned a TV. Unfortunately, they “checked” with a “neighbor” who had moved away almost 3 years before the “checking”, and this “neighbor” had no idea that 2.5 years before they were asked, we had thrown out our TV. I hope they have improved their standard of “checking”.
