How would the two compare?

| Prep school is better. You just write a check and no real parenting needed. |

How would they compare in what way? Location? Cost? Diversity? Outcomes? Rigor? Curriculum? Sport? Robotics teams? Dining services? Nobody is answering this question because the question is far too broad. |

| IF your child is admitted and you can afford a major boarding school, and the social construct of boarding school works for your family - select the boarding school. |

This. I think the answer is obvious. |

| Boarding school because making a post like this is a sign of unfit parenting. |

| I seriously doubt there are more than a handful of families that have gone through the process of deciding between these two options. |

| Having your kid with you through their teens or not. That’s the decision. |
