[quote=Anonymous]Heck no . DH went to a boarding school in the UK, but he didn't board. He commuted. He absolutely refused to board, and he was 13. I don't understand why people have children if they plan on sending them off at age 8 to, effectively, be raised by a bunch of strangers. Are your DH's family wealthy? I also feel like this is a class issue, and an antiquated system when it was the norm in the UK 100+ years ago for the elite to send your children off to places like Eton or some such at the age 8.[/quote]
