Ok, I guess you make some good points. You did it in an immature and nasty way, but they hold some validity. I still hold to my original opinions so I disagree, but that's cool. I won't argue further about it since it's not really the topic of the thread. I will say one thing. Negative reinforcement is used to strengthen a desired response. Punishment is used to weaken a response. I may have used the example somewhat wrongly, it's a very fine line between the two. I'm not trying to be an elitist, just a realist. Note that I said there are public schoolers whom I consider in the upper echelon. I don't consider myself better than them at all. I think you have some preconcieved notions of private schools yourself. However again, not trying to start an argument, sorry if I offended you with my opinions. Have a nice one.
