Just wondering if anyone has left one or more of their children in a boarding school in their home country (I realize that sounds harsh...there's no way to sugar-coat it is there?) whilst living overseas? We are moving to the ME in the NY and have discovered that the schools available for entry mid-year in our new city also happen to be the most expensive. For that kind of money we could afford to send DD (11) to the very good boarding school here in our home town (in Canada) which is 5 minutes away from my parents. She'd also be able to continue her competitive gymnastics which I think may be a problem in our new city. Our other option would be to send her (and the boys when old enough) to board in the UK, where I spent most of my childhood and still have lots of relatives. I don't even know if I could actually go through with it, but want to consider all options.
