<p>“biased” can imply irrational. do you believe you fully understand why they are “biased” in this particular decision? do you see any bias in your own perspective on it?</p>
<p>As a family we’re all very stubborn, when we decide something that’s the way it is. They decided that I couldn’t go the second I said “Boarding school” and won’t listen to anything I say about it. Well actually my mother came arund sort of but my father still hasn’t/. Of course I’m biased, I see that. I want to go to BS and ignore the bad sides of it. They think I’m being naive and delusional and I think that they’re thinking Tom Browms School Days and not acknowledging that things have changed.</p>
<p>errrrr, kids are annoying.</p>
<p>My brother noted that your own kids are less annoying than other people’s kids in general; this seems like a survival of the species trait.</p>
<p>You might talk to you guidance counselor or similar person (minister, scout leader, etc.), and see if they can help advocate for you.</p>
<p>That’s not going to happen, I don’t know anyone in the community… My parents aren’t that bad 
they’re just being stubborn about BS. My mother is supporting me a bit more now and if she says yes (which when it comes down to it I’m pretty sure she will) then eventually my father will too.</p>
<p>A reason to choose one boarding school=you don’t have to choose between other ones.</p>
<p>BlueRaven1 - Will [url=<a href=“http://www.tabs.org/theTruth/truth.cfm][b]this[/b][/url”>http://www.tabs.org/theTruth/truth.cfm]this[/url</a>] help? I found it on St. Paul’s info page for prospective parents.</p>
<p>Thanks but I already showed them that. Trust me I made a document on all the advantages of BS. :)</p>
<p>OMG!! Me to BLUE!!! I wrote them this huge letter about why I wanted to go, what was wrong with this school, how this would be better for me etc. I printed out all the different courses and clubs and sports, the # of teachers, it was insane. And then guess what? I lost the letter at camp. :p</p>
<p>um,wow! That sucks…</p>
<p>I divided and conquered. Wrote the doc, subjected my mother to my doc and videos and got her reluctant permission to apply.</p>
<p>Frist and only choice</p>
