[quote=Anonymous]My youngest sister went to boarding school and liked it well enough to persuade her husband to send their sons to the same school. For them, it worked out well. The school is only about 2 hours from their home, so it was easy to travel there for athletic and other events. That said, I've never understood the appeal for parents and kids where there are many and varied local school options, as there are in this area. Our three kids attend/ed three different day schools in the DMV and all were happy. Plus, DH and I really like having them and their friends around. There's a lot you can learn about your kids even in those few moments during a ride to school or when they come downstairs for a late night snack. Those small and fleeting and unpredictable moments can be openings for them to talk and for you to listen. Just my 2 cents. [/quote]
