    Option 4: Only argument (ii) is strong. Argument (ii) raises valid concerns about the potential negative impact of separation from parents on children's emotional well-being and their relationships with their parents. This argument acknowledges the potential drawbacks of the boarding school system, which is an important consideration when evaluating its overall benefits for children. On the other hand, argument (i) focuses solely on the separation aspect without considering its potential drawbacks, making it weaker in comparison.
