@SimonPartridge @suzannezeedyk @sebkraemer @salhogg @fionalarkin13 @PiersCross1 @RossIsobel @JoySchaverien @nickduffell @axrenton @NMPsychologist Karlen Lyons-Ruth and her team have been doing some interesting work on the effect of trauma on age-related changes to the right amygdala. For girls, trauma at 11-ish produces most damage. Depressing reading, but again, ban early BS! https://t.co/U54F53NiWe

@NeilMackay It's as if UK is the last colony of the Imperial elite fostered in places like Eton, Charterhouse & Winchester. When will the indentured labourers wake up - 4 July? @suzannezeedyk @PiersCross1 @Melissa_Benn @cspencer1508 @joycemcm @nickduffell @robertverkaik1 @PEPForum @moxeyns

[Nicky Moxey @moxeyns]

But this is utterly disgusting! Adding the ACE or two that TCK-ness brings to boarding - poor kids!

[Simon Partridge @SimonPartridge]

@PEPForum @AnnaSophieGross @FT So, it seems Brit children could be sent overseas for their boarding education compounding the dis-location & attachment rupture boarding brings. Can we possibly think about the psychological & pedagogical implications of this? @RossIsobel @JoySchaverien @nickduffell @moxeyns

@thepetitioner @SimonPartridge @suzannezeedyk @Love_EarlyYears @cspencer1508 @PiersCross1 @axrenton @nickduffell @JoySchaverien I've just done the mental equivalent of ripping a sink off the wall, hurting myself in the process. 50 years after the original insult at boarding school, thank god I now have a therapist to process the impulse and the root problem. Boarding DAMAGES people!

@PlayfulAnytime You know what, it's not a stretch it's the bleedin obvious that's been hiding in plain sight for centuries. @cspencer1508 has finally blown the lid off the Grand Conspiracy! It can only get better. [I speak as an ex-boarder.] @suzannezeedyk @RossIsobel @moxeyns

@suzannezeedyk @grahamchatterl2 @PiersCross1 @SimonPartridge @mikegalsworthy @sebkraemer @rickyegan_ @garethkthomas @margl43 Terrifyingly, it's not actually lying, persuading, obfusticating, because you live in an alternate universe where your rule can conquer all, even gravity, if needed; because reality was too scary to live in as soon as it all went pear-shaped.

[Suzanne Zeedyk @suzannezeedyk]

Yes. Brexit brought to us by traumatised boys.
Boardng school teaches you skills in lying, in persuasion, in obfuscating. You need those skills to survive it.

@suzannezeedyk @grahamchatterl2 @PiersCross1 @mikegalsworthy @sebkraemer @rickyegan_ @moxeyns @garethkthomas @margl43 I was sent @ 6. It's an institution founded on the false premise that you can remove young children from the love & security of home without serious damage. The founder of Attachment Theory, Dr Bowlby, came from just such a background. See my paper: https://t.co/SnVRQo33Cq

@FlwrS359 @SimonPartridge @axrenton @nickduffell @robertverkaik1 @joycemcm @PiersCross1 @moxeyns @JoySchaverien Minimum age for boarding school? @SimonPartridge & @JoySchaverien say 16 years old.
@Bowlby_Centre has useful insights on this question.

[Nicky Moxey @moxeyns]

@suzannezeedyk @PiersCross1 @culturesdigital @SimonPartridge @thepetitioner @David_Cameron I don't even think the implement is important; the public humiliation of everyone knowing a beating was going to happen and the breaching (once again) of any residual safety are the damaging aspects.

[Suzanne Zeedyk @suzannezeedyk]

"It is time we stopped assuming ex-boarding children are made to govern as adults." Quoting @SimonPartridge - in relation to Rishi Sunak & many others current Westminster politicians.

@jebrittan2 @SimonPartridge @PiersCross1 @suzannezeedyk @axrenton @NMPsychologist @DrGaborMate @cspencer1508 @zoelpalmer Still happening, Jo. There's no way I'd let down the absolutely heroic people who contributed a story. Wheels grinding exceedingly slow...

@SJATurney @histnovsoc Pleasure :) Darn good read.
