My 14 year old daughter is going away to boarding school in the Fall and I am having a hard time

@HarvestMoon1 -thanks for your insight. However this is a tricky one for our family, as this child NEVER drives the process! Which is perhaps why we thought of BS for DC in the first place! DC is our “head in the sky” scientific type who will be one of those in your work building that forgets to press the floor they are going to when they get in the elevator! Plus, no one here does boarding school… So, while I think your reasoning is sound, it may not apply to us. Other signs, maybe since DC was accepted?
