Our son attended an academic, non-military boarding high school almost 3,000 miles away from home for his high school years, but he was fully invested and we allowed him to go; we certainly did not send him against his will and wouldn't have considered that approach for one minute. The poor kids we knew who were "sent away" did not adjust well to their forced arrangements and were eventually separated by the schools for their own good and emotional health. What you are suggesting sounds to me like the worst form of hell for a child, most likely with disastrous results. Regardless of how good or bad the schools are your list are (I know none of them), if your child is not onboard with attending, none of these schools will perform the magic you are hoping for. You are the parent; you ARE the one best equipped to help her, not some boarding school. If you don't believe that, your plan has failed right there.
Hugs to your child.
Oh my goodness, I thought this was a military prep school forum. What a bunch of pu**** are in here. Duh...she’ll get on board . She’s not going to be sent against her will. I think we have reading comprehension problems in our nation as well as a lack of critical thinking skills. Where did I say she would go whether she wanted to or not? Read it again. Then again. Again, afraid for our nation here. I am not “hoping” for anything. I am planning and researching to decide what is best for my child and asked advice about that. “Form of hell” is being disciplined? What universe am I in?
