Education is good but what we are offering our kids is really not education.. just mimicking, memorizing, robotic work! At the end of the day, we need to leave space in the kid's brains to be creative! I do not intend to ever put my kids on the rat race, I am not asking them to score an A.. A grade "B" is just enough.. They need more time playing at those ages and being creative and not just memorizing stuff... The world today is not just about being an "A" student.. so many parameters to consider

However some situations arise that call for a relook at ones beliefs. I took my 12 year old to boarding school this year and my reasons were as follows:- 1.My employment is transfering guys and I could be a victim.BTW my kids have been to 5 schools to-date due to transfers across the country. 2.Schools in my county are not performing well. 3.The school I took her to has many kids admitted to Precious Blood,Maryhill and Loreto Limuru which are Choice Schools for me and my chicklet. The school has 1 weekend out every month and is only 30mins away so we dont miss each other alot. My observation this farome independence has set in,she has better social skills and is performing better in class than her previous school. @UPC...I dont indulge in any of the vices you have mentioned and I was a believer in keeping my kids in day till secondary school but then reality is different and does not take care of our wishes. Love is beautiful and so are those who share it.With Love, Marriage is an amazing event in ones life time, the foundation of joy, happiness and success.

Of what good will you chicklet be if she is admitted in Maryhill, gets an A and turns out to be a drug addict? Would you prefer an A drug addict or a B- disciplined chicklet?

You do not have kids yet? I have a kid and as @Kihara Joni clearly stated, mine also will not see inside a primary education boarding school. Wacha hiyo "A" ikae!!!

I went to boarding school when i was 12 years but at least at that time, i was a bit mature. My friends who started boarding at nursery school have ever since been always on the wrong side of authorities and being rebellious!! Don't use mature and 12 years in the same sentence Lord, thank you!

But how do you take a seven, eight and nine yr olds to boarding school? You'd rather surrender them for adoption instead. Nkt So at what age will you ever have them if by this age they've left your house already? "Peace is our profession, War is our business" ...Unknown
