St. Teresa of Avila's dad sent her to a convent school, I believe when she was in her teens, as he thought she was too "high-spirited" and was afraid for her future.

St. Teresa of Avila's father sent her to a convent to protect her virtue and to provide her with a better education than what was available to women at that time. Additionally, Teresa had a desire for a more contemplative life, which influenced her decision to become a nun.
