DH wants to send son to Eton College

DH went there as a child and loved it. Our DS will be 8 in October. DH wants to start getting him tutored for the entrance exam, but I cannot help but find the whole situation a little premature. He would not attend the school for another five years.

Other than that, I am sure Eton is a perfectly respectable abode, but all that bad press is rather fishy.

Well, I absolutely wouldn't want to send a child of mine to Eton, but if my partner was an old Etonian, I'm pretty sure that this would have been discussed long before any pregnancies.

Given how hard it seems to be to get in even for very bright kids, I wonder how Prince Harry managed it...
