[quote=Anonymous]We are planning to send our son to boarding school in fall 2015 for 10th grade. Yes, it is family tradition, and yes, he wants to go. More importantly, it is an opportunity for him to become incredibly independent, to not have me or dad hovering over him, nagging about HW and tests, letting him become the captain of his academic destiny, to allow him to stretch and reach and grow. Yes, it will be incredibly hard for me, but he spent 6 weeks in Europe this year as an exchange student, so I know I will survive. I love my son, and I am not afraid to let him go. I know he will be better prepared for college because of it. [/quote]
