Great post, albion. Your advice applies to all schools including non-residential schools. There are way too many kids who have personal, family, financial problems. If you have a child who is very caring of others they can become a magnet for those with troubles even if just a shoulder to cry on. It can be difficult to explain to your kid that they cannot help others on their own without getting dragged down emotionally–they simply don’t have the emotional/experience resources and the best thing to do is involve adults.
