People say that a boarding school offers an individual a complete education. And for someone like me, I attended a boarding school and learned vital life values from there.

I think I am lucky not to have experienced this. Since my schools from primary to university are near my house, I did not experience this scenario.

I was a day scholar for the first two years then joined boarding for the rest two years. Personally I would enroll my children to a boarding school since they will know how to take care of themselves and also improve their academic status

No, I didn't attend any, but I won't suggest anyone to attend it as I just have one example of my first cousin. Who was there for years in loneliness far away from his parents and now he is a mental ill person.

I rented an apartment during my college years, and it helped me learn many things. It allowed me to become more independent, for one. If I ever have a child who goes to college, I would allow them to rent an apartment. I believe it is a helpful learning experience that promotes independence and responsibility.

Boarding school is good but sometimes it's expensive so for me I will send all my kids to boarding school because it's well secure for them and the decipline is good at first

There was a time I was almost sent to a boarding school, but in the end I did not. I don't think I would carry my child to a boarding school.

No, I did not attend a boarding school growing up. While they can provide excellent educational opportunities, I'm not sure I would send my own child away unless it was truly the best option for their needs and goals.

I never attended a boarding school but my older brother did so. I can’t let my child attend a boarding school because he or she must know how to do so many things like home chores and all

I stayed in college hostel during my university days as my home is far away from the university. It was a fantastic experience. One of the roommates has become my close friend.

No, I didn't attend boarding school ever in my life and I won't like my kids to attend boarding school because I cannot live without them.
