[quote=Anonymous]I also went to boarding school and am really familiar with all the schools on this list. There are so many pluses. There are also some negatives that I didn’t fully appreciate until I became a parent, had children of my own, and saw how my own relationship with my family evolved. You really don’t ever get back the time living at home as a child, no matter how amazing the school. I think you have an opportunity here to help your child listen and respect to what their gut is telling them. Also, you can reassure them that there’s no wrong choice. If they are really that talented in a sport, they’ll realistically be able to reapply for 10th or 11th grade if they decide they want to go away when they are older and slightly more independent. Good luck, you sound like wonderful parents.[/quote]
