From the student perspective, that’s just not gonna happen. I’m not sure that it would happen even if the kid did not go to boarding school. Particularly with older (16+) teens, you can cross the 12 weeks of summer off right now. Between summer jobs and summer projects, there will be precious little time for mom and dad. Cherish the bits that you do get.
But while we’re at boarding school, please send homemade cookies.
