boarding school...i have not been to one, but i feel with every thing in this world, there are some positive and negative aspects associated. since i have nt been to a boarding school therefore i cant really comment on the issue, but i wud like to share my hostel experince while pursuing MBA. a hostelier is definitely more confident and independent than a guy who has never been to an alien city on his own. hostel life gives a feeling of independence an responsibilites. your life, your view, your opinions but also it tells you nt to corss the line. i think same process go on in a boarding school, where child get to manage his or her own tasks, makes him independent, makes him take a stand, a confident person, but at very tender age, things can go a little nasty, like senior junior relationship, especially if an adolscnet is being inducted into a boarding school. so all in all if u tryst ur ward, and keep checks on him or her, boarding school can be a great place, but for parents hu send their children to boarding school so as to shun their responsibilities, thinking boarding will take care of their ward, they tend to be horribly wrong.

in a way yes and in a way no
The child in his formative years explores more when given a proper guidence
so when he's small he should be with his parents

boarding schools r in a way beneficial as they mould children properly and aptly....hence overall growth is achieved.

not always beneficial. what about the students who get into bad company there?

[jogabonito]

i think that boarding schools make kids more independent and able to deal with various situations plus its a lotta fun...

[CITYBOY]
