If my kid got a better grade after paying (whether earned or not) don't you think those who didn't pay would have questions?


This sort of situation is not just isolated to LI. If you look at the top high school teams down in the MD and DC area - all their coaches are affiliated with a club or run one. But, I have not seen any whining about it in the MD forum. How do they make it work down there or are people just more tolerant of it? Or is it because they really don't care much about the high school situations because they have been conditioned by their club affiliations.
