Boarding house is good and helps the child to be self dependent but that is if your child attend a good and better boarding school that are very discipline and all those gay/lesbian happens mostly in only male or female school hardly you find it in mixed school.i will chose boarding house over and over again

Day students are easily influenced when they get to university because they have mot developed the like akills to have confidence in thwir neq found independence.

All theae parents saying they want to pick their children up from secondary achool. Remember your child would get to university where you would not be able to police them.

I don't agree with the first paragraph.

Living alone and living in hostel are two entirely different things.

I have experienced life in boarding school and i can tell you students always find a way around these "strict" rules put out by the school.
It doesn't take long to see those above these rules and how they go about it.
Some of those promoting these vices are actually current staff of these boarding schools who are most likely wolves in sheep clothings.

A house mistress who is a lesbian will definitely find it easy recruiting girls placed under her care.
Boys who wants to have their way and beat the security system of the school can tip them with enticing gifts etc.

So tell me, are you now a homosexual?

In boarding school, students live in the school premises and go to class from their hostels while day school students go to school from their parent houses.
Which one do you prefer and why?

I prefer day school.
I was once a boarder, it wasn't really a good experience and to make it worse, it was a missionary boarding school. Everyone has their own opinion but I don't recommend boarding school.

Would prefer boarding school but it’s day for me, all the handwork or skill in this life eh, they must acquire it o, no lesson it’s straight to the workshop, salon,factory or any skill acquisition center.if they fail they write it again. Plus the bonding, after university they will be in and out of the house, kids these days spend shorter times with their parents.

Missionary boarding school, Why? It builds the mind and teach students how to survive on their own without their parents and also the moral upbringing attached to such schools. If I am to go back in age I will still choose a boarding school again. Though it was hard but was also fun.
Social life/effect; It made me so independent that I find it hard to associate with people, I can literally live in a whole town only me without seeing a human and wont even feel the need to see any.


Your so called "morals" is only a phase which eventually wears off on students with time. Waking up by 5am for morning devotion, going to school early, going for evening evening by 5pm and prep after dinners, sounds nice doesn't it? Except very few students become the ideal type you are talking about.

Pikin wey go spoil go spoil. If you like put am for day school or home school. It depends on the training you give your child. I went to a boarding house and I don't regret it. It built my level of exposure,social skills, it made me fearless and independent. Before going to boarding house, my parents gave me the training I needed. My dad was very strict; I don't visit friends and my friends are always scared to visit me, some thought my dad was a soldier. While my mum wasnt strict, she loves when my friends visit, cos she wants to know my kind of friends. She built my christian life, she gave me sex education at a very early age , she gave me genuine reasons why I need to stay away from the opposite sex. These training helped me all through my high school to my undergraduate days. Boarding school is never easy especially for those kids that are spoilt brat, they're easily influenced. My boarding school was a single school(FGGC), so there was high level of lesbianism and abortion; pregnancy which most times belonged to Corpers and male teachers. Yet I'll still prefer to send my child to a boarding school to get more exposed, cos it helped me,Parents alone can't bring up a child but the training should come first from the parent . The world is changing ,so on my own part Jss 1-3 Day school. Ss1-3 Boarding school.

Boarding School Better Than Day School?

there are a lots of reasons to send you kids to boarding schools, but in my opinion, boarding school is better than day school, students who are in boarding school are mentally and emotionally strong, most students find it hard to live in boarding school, a lot of them do cry when ever their parents come visiting. Boarding schools tend to teach moral and value which is lacking in today life.

Discipline

Discipline is one of the major reasons to send you kid to boarding school. Boarding school students are well-disciplined than the day school students. Discipline makes boarding school better than day school. There are different factors which contributes to the well discipline of secondary school hostel students. There are different set of rules which guide the boarding school students, for example, a boarding school student knows that he has to wake up on time, brush, do his morning duty(maybe sweeping the hostel, washing of toilet etc) take his bath on time, go to dinning in order not miss his breakfast.

Punctual

Punctual is one of the reasons to send your kid to boarding school. When it comes to time, boarding school students are good time managers than the day school students. Every day-to-day activities being carry out in boarding school have its specific time, we made reference to dinning time which is the most crucial among all. When you miss your meal, you have to go hungry and patiently wait for the next meal. Especially in boarding schools that doesn't allow provision, like the missionary school.

Hard Working

Yes hard work is one of the main reasons to send you kid to boarding school. Boarding schools breed students to be hard-working, the students who neglect their morning duties are being penalized. Those who hide during manual labor are not left out, they will be punished. Most students who come from the rich family find it hard to wash their clothes by their selves and carry out other mini duties. But in boarding schools, the case is different, nobody will wash your clothes for you, you will have to do it by your self.

Socialization

Social activity of the kid is also a reasons why boarding school is better than day school. Boarding school plays a key role when it comes to socialization . Most kids find it hard to socialize and mingle with other kids, boarding school tend to bring together kids with different background and characters. A dull kid will end up being outspoken and bright. Some kids find it difficult to speak in public, they tend to be afraid, but with the aid of boarding school, the kid will know how to relate with people he doesn't know.

Academic Performance

The kid academic performance is another reason to send your kid to boarding school. I wouldn't say that boarding school kids are more intelligent than the day school. Rather, I will say that boarding school students perform academically better than the day school. There is time for everything, the boarding school student tend to utilize his reading time than that of the day school. A day students may not have time to read after school due to many factors or might be busy doing nothing, but a boarding student will have time to read after school, because they are forced to go fot night prep(reading) every day for about 2 or more.

Free time

Most time, it is difficult for some parents to look after their kids at home,it could be as a result of their job. especially, bankers that leave home as early as 7am to be back by 8pm or 10pm when there is tragic for people staying in major cities like Lagos. A boarding school is perfect for such parents, it will be a home away from home.
i don't agree to that social aspect,most boarding students have seen here have problem relating to other members of society,they mostly keep to theirselves.

don't mind the guy you quoted, he is now concluding that most students in boarding are lesbians and gay due to isolated instances he might have come across. I have also seen day students with same gay dispositions.

I don't think people's sexual orientation is because of their environment but I may be wrong.
During my boarding school days, four girls were caught and caned but they still continued

Day school that students are notorious for visiting one mallam for Colorado or knacking themselves in each other houses(when parents are absent) or coming together to watch porn or joining street thugs to learn yahoo or going to one iya dami beer parlour to chill...

boarding was the best thing that happened to me.. It was through the boarding school that i learnt alot and became a better person..


Everyone has different experience
It wasn't a nice one for me, I didn't value education then and kept squandering my parent's money
My result at the end of the term was so funny that I refused showing it to my parents.

My dad later switched me to a day school which gave me great experience

Honestly boarding schools and day schools have their advantages and disadvantages. Its really up to the family and the child to see which is a better fit for them…..

And a sensible person has spoken!!!!

I feel boarding could work well for business parents who have no time for their kids while day school would be suitable for parents to watch and guide the paths of their children.

This is a very wrong assertion. Lesbians and gays are made at home too. Kids can pick up bad habits anywhere, even under your sensitive nostrils, unblinking eyes and infrasonic-sound-detecting ears.
I have worked with students in hostels and I can tell you that 97% of the students i worked with over the years, turned out good without behavioral defects. There were cases of abnormal behaviors in some kids but none was so defective beyond redemption. I am talking of a population of over 500students for over 5years. If you have good hands, child handler's periodic and consistent trainings, well structured institution and a blend of good admission policies, boarding school school defeats most parent monitored day students.

The boarding school is a subset of the larger society. If you survive the predators there you can survive anywhere.

There are different categories of boarding school.
I wish you know what I am talking about.

A boarding school gives tons of perverts easy access to your child. That doesn't reflect the real world where those same deviants have to deal with a host of protections. It doesn't reflect the real world in any other viable way unless you're referring to prison.

Different categories of boarding schools don't actually exist because whether it's a cheap facility or 50K USD a year school, the child will still be in an environment that does not support healthy growth and development, and does leave them very vulnerable to abuse.

What i don't like about boarding school is the "lack of bond" between the parents and the child,




Talking from experience,my junior sister that went federal girls could be so mean at times toward her parents,she is such a girl that hardly miss her family, she could go for years,just be calling once in while,she's never around,though stays in USA.
