The Making of Them

Recommended Posts

The impression I get from British boarding schools is that they are a means to outsource child abuse for wealthy families who don't think public school is damaging enough. British society pressures the parent that their children have to learn sooner or later how to conform or they won't fit into society.

 

This video is so depressing. My parents paid to send me away twice for a couple weeks at a time over the summer when I was 10 and 11. The golf lessons were enjoyable and the teachers capable, but some of the other children were obviously dysfunctional and abused, freely acting it out on others, and the overall experience was bittersweet for me. I recall sharing a bed with a German boy who kicked me while he pretended to sleep until I moved to the floor. What an asshole!

 

Luckily, neither of the schools pushed religion, and were less restrictive than British boarding schools.
