[QUOTE="Lookingforthelight, post: 682842"] Thanks Leafy. I have to play around on here. Lol. This is all new to me. She has struggled in school since kindergarten. Things simply didn't come easy to her. And unfortunately I had her in a highly academic school that left her behind because she was a "challenge". I pulled her out in grade 6 and we found great success at her new school. Her teacher was AMAZING and supportive. We had her tested and her programming modified to help her feel success. Grade 7 was a joke. She was in a program that was too easy. Waste of a year. We moved to a new town in grade 8. I begged the school to modify her courses. No luck. Met new, bad friends and it's been downhill from there. Grade 10 was "ok" for schooling. She passed her courses. By this time she was with her boyfriend who was emotionally abusive. Grade 11 she was truent & suspended for it. Second semester we put her in an outreach school which was ok (it's a good environment for her & good people) but she got pregnant (not on purpose) then went off the rails. She didn't finish but left the boyfriend (yay). She went last semester to the out reach and finished all her grade 11 courses (yaaaay!!). We were so proud of her. But there was still a lot of challenges last semester with her being booted out of the house etc. She decided then she wanted to go back to the mainstream high school to graduate with her "friends". Last week she decided she wanted to go back to outreach and we supported it. Agsin, it's a better environment. And here we are today. She didn't go to school the last 2 days. I'm not surprised. She has only 3 courses left to complete. I think she wants to graduate but I think I wanted it more. School is her way of getting things from us. Her social life is far more important. [/QUOTE]
