[quote=Anonymous]My kids attend/ed a DC independent school, but they have cousins and friends who attend/ed boarding school, so we are somewhat familiar with the pros and cons. For our family, though the teen years have been challenging, they have also been precious. We shared late night talks, rarely missed a game or meet, got to know the kids' wonderful circle of friends -- really, I wouldn't have traded a minute of it. Our two oldest, who have gone on to university, have many classmates who went to the top boarding schools (Exeter, Andover, etc.). Our kids seem to be holding their own. [/quote]
