This is slightly a TAAT but not really because I was thinking about it before I read the thread.
Must have been a couple of weeks ago. I think the discussion was about children going to university and being homesick and not coping. the presenter read out an email she'd had from a woman who had decided to go off somewhere to meditate and ended up staying abroad for 3 months. I think she said something like 'there was a lot of healing needed'.
Her DS, who was doing A Levels I think, had to fend for himself and apparently after freaking out for a few days got on with it and managed. Then when he went to university he coped well and didn't find it a big transition.
All well and good but is this even legal? Would a school not be concerned that one of their students was suddenly living alone? (didn't get the impression there was a dad around). Is that a fair situation for a young person about to sit their exams?
Just interested in other people's thoughts should I stop clutching my pearls
