[quote=Anonymous][quote]Why tell her, if it would almost kill you? I do know of unusual cases where kids push for boarding school. But, I would never push the idea. My son almost had to go away, because he wasn't thriving in our local high school in 9th grade -- I'm so happy that I finally found a very small private high school in the D.C. area that worked.[/quote] I think there's a big difference between pushing a child into going to boarding school and mentioning it as a possible choice of many. I know at 14 that I didn't even know that such things existed except in the vaguest way--I thought it was something I read about in British novels. It wasn't until high school when I met a friend of a friend who didn't go to high school with us because he went to Exeter.[/quote]
