I know there are a lot of nepalese who grew up in boarding schools.
I just wanted to know your opinion about boarding schools, and if you would send your kids there.

I spent 10 years of my life in a hostel and hated it :-)
But I would definitely suggest everybody to send their kids to a boarding school but not to put their kids in a hostel though.

Actually, I know a couple who are my friends who have been trying to come to terms about whether to send thier kids to boarding or not. They are having mixed opinions about it.

What would your opinion be for either supporting or not supporting boarding school?

what do you mean by supporting or not supporting. If some people want to send their kids to the boarding school , then let them send it. Some parents live in the villages and want to send their kids to the school in KTM, then hostel is the only place they can send them.

I am talking about if you had a choice? And why would you make such choice?
Like you said: Don't send your kids to boarding shool.
I was just wondering what your opinion was for it.

Interesting topic and indeed helpful for someone deciding on their kids
FIRST message - Don send ur kids to hostel.
Folks, i was sent to a boarding school and live in a hostel at the age of 4. did all my schooling living in hostel.
There are mixed arguments in favor or against sending kids to live in hostel. But my judgement says - don let ur kids live in hostel. However, some people are really glad and proud that they put their kids in hostel (i suld say this is an exception).
Hostel life gives the kid opportunity to be self-dependent. While kids are at home, they are more likely to be PULPULEKO. WHile in hostel, they are used to canes and that makes them very obedient and doing their duty on time.
However, students living in hostel can turn out to be very wild - reasons: no social guidance, its a kinda hitler sasan of the hostel incharge and seiour guys. young kids get beaten by seniors and their food and snacks are taken by seniors (this is what happened in my hostel). This gives a hatred on the young kids, and these guys when they grow to be senior in the hosetel can often start becoming rude to juniors and the same stuff, taking away their food and so so. this is my experience of living in hostel. A kinda dada giri can be a norm in hostel.
So keep ur children at home and send to schools. but don make then like PULPULEKO balak. If ur child is pulpuleko, then he will not prefer to do his personal duties. I used to wash my clothes myself while i was 10 or so. Right from the age of 4-5 we had to make our bed into good shape after waking up in the morning.
Particularly, my hostel was a very strict one and we had a very nasty hostel incharge. WE used to get too much of dhulai and many students ran away to their house from the hostel. he was too rude to kids and with a very dirty family values. he later married a aya of the hostel and his wife ran away with one of our senior in the hostel. They had two cute daughters, bt these two parents were a kinda encouraging their daughters to be with the guys of the hostel. Very demoralized family value system in that hostel incharge. I think it was what the hostelers learnt from these teachers - my hostel had a reputation of being very sexy and dirty. Class 9, 10 girls and guys were already into ilu ilu stuffs and couple of times some guys were found coming outside of the girls hostel in the morning after fully bright with scratching their eyes. very nasty hostel. I think many teachers were aware that sex is going within students living in hostel. Hostel guys hunting the ayas was very common.
but living in hostel, kids have chance to get into lots of athletic stuffs - my school had the strongest reputation in sports in Jhapa. We used to have a game teacher and learing athletics is always good for guys. Waking up early, doing ur stuffs on ur own,etc are somethings we learn better. I have seen that many neps like to make their kids pulpuleko. That is not doing good in future. I think making kids pulpuleko and giving them unnecessary advantage is more common among rich families.
ANy one of Kankai English Boarding School, Jhapa. OUr hostel inchrage - that Thapa sir and miss were jerk. Many of we hostellers had the same version - when i grow big, i wil bang that Thapa sir.
My hostel life was terrible, but managed to survive. But i can now appreciate that i learnt good things from my hostel life. it has helped me to be self-dependent and very responsible to my duties. but most of my friends learnt bad things more than what they leant is good.

Gator guy u r hilarious, could not stop myself from cracking there, hehe, lol, haha, ok time for me to stop.
NO hostel life ain't bad and parents mostly put their children in hostel either coz they can't control their children or coz they are busy travelling, work or other stuff.
Gator guy, both you and me lived in hostels but our hostels seemed VERY DIFFERENT from each other. I have other reasons for hating my hostel life which i don't wanna mention here.
Let's go back to the topic, if one HAD a choice, I strongly suggest them to put their child in a boarding school rather than a government managed school. Its better for the child's future.
