B : What? Why?
什么？为什么？

嗯，我们这里的公立学校不是很好，私立学校又很贵。我读了有关家庭教育的书，发现有很多的优势。

比如？我觉得这么做的话会让我们的孩子很孤立，不会社交。

嗯，首先，我能够用一种更加轻松和好玩的方式教他们在学校里学到的一切。我还觉得一对一的教学方式可以有争对性发现他或者她的优缺点。
B : I think neither your parents or mine would agree to such an idea.

A : I will bring it up over Sunday brunch.
我会在周末的早午餐的时候跟他们提的。
B : Good luck with that!
