A year before kiddo applied to BS, we were driving to a golf tournament and saw a bumper sticker that read as follows: If a woman’s place is in the home, then why am I always in this d… car?
If your kid does multiple sports, is a strong student that needs greater educational/academic opportunities than your local school can offer, athletic competition beyond their hometown, maybe juggling performing arts in their along with sports & MUN, and you are tired of spending 4 hours a day in the car (like I was)….YOU might be ready for boarding school, as well as your kid.
