I actually do wonder how many people actually know this.

Sometimes it’s not the biggest thing. I have a kid with autism. Highest on my list was where his best friend was going. It took so long to make that friend that I wasn’t taking chances. 10/10 would make the same choice again. It doesn’t really matter how good the school is on paper if your kid is sad all the time because he can’t make friends.
