[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We went through the same thing after our daughter decided to go. Like “what have we done?”. And I went to boarding school! It was an amazing experience for her. Trust his decision and go with it-but also nothing is permanent if he doesn’t like it. Your feelings are normal. [b]Many will stereotype parents who send their kids to boarding school as unloving, not close, etc. nothing could be farther from the truth[/b] on our end-we talk all the time, see them often and they have thanked us many times for the gift of going. [/quote] Yes this! Only now do I fully see how much I was at the center of my mother’s universe and what a big act of love it was for her to let me fly without expressing to me any sadness for herself or any doubts about my capabilities. Just support, encouragement, and “I believe in you.”[/quote]
