Extractions: Back to: School Recommendations March 2001 I am entertaining an idea to send one of my daughters (12 years old) to a boarding school. She is very unhappy at home and doesn't get along with her siblings (middle child syndrom). She seems to function well outside of the family, is independent and self-assured. Any experience (yours or your child's) or recommendation with boarding school would be very appreciated. Can boarding school be good for some kids or is that just a last resort for "bad" parents who can't seem to muster their emotional resources and deal with the child, so they decide to dump him/her and make them someone else's responsibility? I know this sounds like a loaded question but I can take an honest answer. Anonymous Boarding School can be very good or very bad depending upon the kid and the school. I'm from the east coast, where a lot of people go to boarding school, my family included. Six out of the seven of the kids in my family attended boarding school, my father attended boarding school and his father before him. One of the big reasons we attended boarding school (I say this in retrospect) was that my father was a single parent of seven children. I don't believe any of us thought of this as a punishment or an abdication of responsibility on the part of my father, rather we thought of it as a really cool opportunity. This isn't to say that there weren't kids in our classes who thought of it that way.

http://www.grennaskolan.se/lng_en/doc/

Extractions: info@grennaskolan.se Welcome to Grennaskolan Grennaskolan is one of three national boarding schools in Sweden. A national boarding school is under direct supervision of the local authority and the admissions board is nominated by the local council. The national boarding schools all admit day as well as boarding students. The humanist approach rests on three principles: the pursuit of truth and knowledge, respect for individuals, and a global perspective. More than 30 years ago Grennaskolan was founded with the ambition to create a school environment with the resources to live up to these ideals. To say that Grennaskolan, given its success in achieving the objectives, is a unique boarding school is by no means an overstatement. Grennaskolan is designed to meet the needs of students. Students are encouraged to maintain their integrity and develop individually to make the most out of their experience. Attending Grennaskolan is a major step toward choosing a future. Approximately half of the students at Grennaskolan are Swedish expatriates and many have spent their entire lives living abroad. At Grennaskolan these students gain access to a first class Swedish education. The international influences and experiences enrich the school environment as a whole. Those of you who do not have similar international backgrounds will quickly find that the whole world is suddenly closer than you imagined. You will make friends with students who grew up in the most exotic environments.

Extractions: Buttons More Native American Material Clarke Home page The traditional way through which Native American children were educated for the responsibilities that they would assume as adults was by working with and imitating their elders. There was no "school" as it was understood by nineteenth century Europeans. Rather, children were allowed to roam freely throughout the community stopping and asking questions when and where they pleased. Children would work companionably alongside their parents or other adults, helping in small ways and gaining confidence and ability in various skills. Children often engaged in what the Dakota referred to as "small play," impersonating adults and mimicking their activities, conversations, and manners. Grandparents played a very important role in the education of children. Grandmothers, for example, bore responsibility for making girls "well behaved women." A grandmother would take it upon herself to tutor her granddaughter in the subtleties of daily life, such as how to move, how to interact with elders, where to sit at ceremonial occasions. In the evening it was common to send a daughter to her grandmother bearing a gift of food or tobacco. The gift was an invitation to the grandmother to instruct the child in the tribe's traditions that would help the girl understand both her place in the tribe and her people's place in the world.

Extractions: More Information: www.Wilderness-Programs.Org "... the loyalty of most parents toward a program is higher if their child is enrolled, cannot come home and the child is in the middle of their program. This loyalty can become even more powerful if another parent's child is injured (or dies) in the program under allegations of neglect or abuse." By: Michael Conner, Psy.D Revised: March 03, 2003 More and more parents are searching for schools and intervention programs to help their children. They are doing this because public schools, community mental health, law enforcement and psychiatric services have failed their child. Out of shear desperation many parents search across the country and are investigating programs based on advertisements in magazines, television specials, the internet, newspaper articles and the recommendation of consultants. "Intervention programs, schools and therapeutic communities are a growing, viable and effective solution for troubled youth. Parents are no longer limited to traditional and often inadequate interventions such as residential treatment, day treatment and psychiatric hospitalization. The problems that can be effectively addressed include substance abuse, developmental delays, psychological disorders, antisocial behavior and failure of a child to achieve their potential. The success stories associated with these new interventions are supported by a growing body of research. " [ Except from
