What was boarding school like?
Well this is a difficult question to answer.
I will try it anyway with some examples.
An eight year child three nights in a row getting into a bed wet with urine - sleeping in this puddle of urine becasue he is afraid of having to take his wet sheets to the laundry (which is located at the end of the girls section of the boarding house).
An eight year old child, sleepwalking and, climbing into other childrens beds at night as he is lonely and sad.
An eight year old boy having his birthday in silence as no-one knows about it (except the teachers) and therefore no-one sings happy birthday.
An eighteen year old man pasting pictures of Vietnam all over his bedroom wall, at school, as the pain and suffering of Vietnam is what he relates to.

Back in 1978 when I was at boarding school my experience was that I was within about a 1% minority of children who wet their bed at school.
I had a brief look at your URL and it looks good.
I think, as a generalisation, society has become a lot more enlightened about how to treat children nowadays.
