[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boarding school (Groton) was the most traumatic experience of my life. Don't do it. .[/quote] My DS was admitted to Groton, Deerfield, and multiple others (too lazy to write it out). The only one he hated and refused to consider was Groton. It has a reputation as a grind, nose down, competitive and unfriendly place. Not sure when you graduated, but sorry you had this experience. Two sons who went to boarding schools and both loved it. If you had asked me when they were young if I would ever send them, I would have said no. It was very good for both of them.[/quote] I agree with this. It is soooo regulated and micro scheduled. Lack of privacy in the first two years. My guy wanted more fun! [/quote]
