I think the MIR has a more Yeshivish crowd than Kaminetz. I send my boys to kaminetz I am not the MIR type.

I switched my kids from Mir to Toras Emes, (kametitz), one kid was going to fourth grade, the other before 8th.

We are a long term kollel family, but felt that Mir was turning my kids off learning and where scared that the attitude towards frumkeit was one that said frumkeit is shvir and not fun and enjoyable.

the warmth of the toras emes teachers and Rebbeim, and the rescpect of all subjects, including divrei chol made my kids both love learning.
Both are learning in kollel and still maintain a close connection to theri clasmates and rebbiem.
