Boarding School and Neglect. Is Boarding School Neglect?
from An Evolving Man Podcast · host Piers Cross
Today I explore the question about childhood neglect and boarding school. I draw upon the writings of David Cameron, ex-Prime Minister of England who said about his boarding school, "The food was spartan. I lost a stone in weight during a single term. There was one meal that consisted of curry, rice – and maggots. " https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7464599/How-David-Camerons-brutal-prep-school-1970s-featured-regular-beatings.html So today I draw upon the work of Joy Schaverien and share some thoughts from the NSPCC about neglect. As they say on their website: "Neglect is the ongoing failure to meet a child's basic needs and the most common form of child abuse." https://www.nspcc.org.uk/what-is-child-abuse/types-of-abuse/neglect/ Is boarding school neglect? I also quote from Bear Grylls.
