Charles Spencer's new book about his boarding school experiences has now been released.

On Monday of this week I came across this article from the Telegraph about a fellow pupil and how "it did him the world of good": https://www.telegraph.co.uk/columnists/2024/02/17/boarding-school-princess-diana-earl-spencer-maidwell-hall/
I also received an email from the wife of an ex-boarder last week. In it she talks about how her husband claims to have "loved boarding school".
But has real difficulties with emotions and relations
So today I wanted to speak to those who loved boarding.
I see there are 3 camps.
1. The truth, they loved it and it was good for them.
2. Denial, those that have suppressed or dissociated from what happened
3. Betrayal trauma and the work of Jennifer Freyd. Many of us were betrayed at boarding school and it creates amnesia according to Dr Freyd's work.
Warm regards, Piers
