Reasons Why People Choose A Christian Boarding School For Your Children

By Erin Smith

Many people find that when they are thinking of the best way to educate their child they are faced with a lot of decisions. I would like to tell you about the ways a Christian boarding school can help your child to become a well rounded teenager and adult, which is something that in normal high school is hard to achieve.

The first benefit to the Christian boarding school is that compared to the costs of other kinds of boarding schools they tend to be on the whole a lot cheaper, sometimes up to 50%, this is because the schools are not looking to make financial gain but to teach the bible.

The morals set behind the 10 commandments if stuck to by all of society would make the world a better place and solve a lot of the problems that exist in modern society all over the world. The teachings will allow your child to follow the moral guidance of a Christian upbringing so that they are able to succeed in a very troubled world.

Although in many high schools teenagers can feel the need to lose their virginity, teenagers are taught to wait within a Christian environment, and instilling this teaching into your child will mean there is less chance of a teenage pregnancy. The other children will be taught the same thing therefore there will not be the peer pressure put upon them to have sex at an early age.

This kind of teaching will mean that the child will look to wait until they are married, and with divorce rates high this is something that could mean your child does not end up as another statistic, as they will look for a partner who is prepared to wait for physical love and build on emotional love first.

One other fact that has been proven time and time again is that children attending a Christian same sex school are not faced with the distraction of the physical attraction to the opposite sex so are therefore able to concentrate on the studies they need to get the job they want when they graduate.

Since religion has not been taught to children as a way of life in the way it once way the crime and teen pregnancy rates have increased, as have incidents where children and teenagers do not have the respect for their parents as they should do. It is important to instil good morals as soon as possible and in a community where others are taught the same thing, which takes away the want to rebel.

It is a big decision for you and your spouse to make, to send your child or teenager away to a boarding school, and understandably something that will take time, but when you think of the building blocks your child will be given you will see that you will be doing the best thing for them in taking them away when most vulnerable from the everyday temptations of life. - 29955
