Hello-
I went to summer camp at Choare for a couple weeks, which was like mini boarding school, as I had never been to sleep away camp before then. For the first, say, two minutes after my parents just left, I was missing them. But once I realized that I could call them, I was fine. Usually, I’d call just after study hours (nine o’clock), every few days. I’d also drop in a quick email to my mum every once and a while when I couldn’t call. While my family would have liked for me to call them every day, I truly didn’t have time.
So, I would say that, as a student looking to go to boarding school, I wouldn’t like my parents talking to me every day. Every few days is fine.
