Vita is pretty much done and has been for a while. Switch, like all Nintendo products, is for kids.

Steam Deck is just a delivery appliance for Steam. It has greater potential to last because it's tied to the market, but it doesn't seem like it will capture the developer and hack interest it needs. There's too many devices out there for people who want to do whatever with a device like this. And developers won't get on board unless they're confident the device will stick around. Yes, there's plenty of games you can play, but there's a lot of 'ifs' and 'buts.'

It's a decent option for a seemingly small segment of gamers. But if Sony ever bothers to drop PSP 5G, I don't see how they can compete.

Whi told you that it is only the parents duty to train a child? So you have not heard of agents of socialization? The home front provides the foundation for training and prepares him for life. Why dont you home school your child or conduct church services at home because you dont want to negate your responsibility as a parent. Most probably you would even marry a wife for him.
Again, you're spouting pure nonsense.

Stop leaving in a fool's paradise. Who told you that you would know your child well if he is a day student? So people do not pick vices when they finish from secondary school?
Nothing you're saying relates to any of my points.

I'm very sure you would send your child abroad to get an education despite the fact that drugs, homosexuality and gangs are ravaging kids there. Why dont you tell him to remain in Nigeria so that you can monitor him?
Again, nothing you're saying relates to any of my points.

You want to breastfeed your child and expect him to turn out a well rounded adult without entitlement mentality.
Again, there's no relationship between anything I've said and what you're saying.

Do your job as a parent and train him on what to expect from life's challenges and how to respond to them. Train your child to be an adult not to remain a child.
Sending your child to boarding school is essentially abandoning your duties as a parent. Someone else is "training" your child. Not you.

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.
Has it ever occurred to you that this mentality may be unhealthy or the result of abuse?

Don't get me wrong. If that's your personality, it's okay. But people generally are not like this unless something is wrong.

Na wa for you ooo.
Did you say different categories of boarding school don't exist?
Learn to humble yourself and format your mind.

Since you hold strong to your beliefs peace.
Okay, I admit that statement was unfair.

But my point is that even in an expensive school, your child can still be victimized by child abusers, terrorized by peers (including s**ual assault), and ultimately not emerge as the person they should be or what you imagined.
EducationRe: Boarding School Vs Day School: Which Is Better? by Cousin9999: 1:01pm On Jul 21, 2021
No disrespect, but I feel like people defending boarding school so strongly are:

1. Parents defending their laziness or lack of love for their own babies.

2. People who feel insecure about attending one, or their parents' motivation for sending them.

3. Employees of boarding schools.

4. People who fear they made the wrong choice for their kids.

I'm sure there are people who had great experiences, but I also feel some of these people are being dishonest about bad things they've seen.

I think people should consider the origin of boarding schools and why they're no longer relevant. We know better and have better.

And the child would learn to protect himself in ur house. He would never leave the house to start his own life and encounter those same things you have been hiding him from? Well done.
Day school is not in the home. Don't be silly. And an adult going out into the world is in no way the same as a small child or even a teen. Again, don't be silly.

At no point did I suggest "hiding" the child from anything. What I stated very clearly multiple times is that a boarding school offers your child to abusers on a silver platter. Your job as a parent, among many things, is to protect your child. Even if the child is an adult, if some creep threatens them, you should be ready to f*** them up. But that's another matter. The bottom line is a child gets better development and education in a day school.

What perverts? So they wont meet these perverts in college or in their places of work?
Boarding school is basically prison. Only the child cannot do anything to protect themselves, and they may not even understand that they're being victimized. Why would any parent want to put their child in that situation?

If you don't teach ur children to develop life skills what type of adults would they turn out to be? Or are you assuming that background has no influence in how people turn out as adults?
You think sending them off to be abused by perverts and mentally disturbed adults and children is "teaching life skills?" You think strangers should teach them all these important skills? undecided

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.
EducationRe: Boarding School Vs Day School: Which Is Better? by Cousin9999: 10:38am On Jul 21, 2021
Day school.

Boarding schools encourage negative behaviors and leave your child vulnerable to predators.

Kids need the support, supervision, and guidance of parents.

Here's the thing. These people come from one of the worst corners of the earth. The fact that they are able to settle in a place like Switzerland is a massive gift. The audacity of these losers to disrespect that nation.
