Parents are their kids natural role models and taking those kids to boarding school might not be the best. |

Boarding school is certainly beneficial when parents do not have the time or skills to raise their kids. Sometimes it may be necessary if there is no good school nearby or some other reasons in the life of the child or the parents. I however think that there are things a child has to learn in an institution and things that are learnt in the family. It would therefore not be advisable to expect an institution to perform both roles. I love having my kids close to me and watching them grow and develop into young adults. i would not want to exchange that for anything in the world. Everyday my kids come back from school, I want to hear all about what happened, what the learnt and what experiences they had. I also monitor their homework and besides outside school I have them attend other activities like choir or sports. The schools do offer extra activities but certainly not on a professional level. |
