[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 604068, member: 14557"] I'm not pro-homeschooling for several reasons, but there are times anything but a classroom is a better choice. Your daughter is not doing well at school in any accept. It is not a good learning environment to her right now, you are not happy with her peer group (and that is hugely important issue at her age), you are not happy with school environment and so on. Maybe taking her off school for a year? Finding out what exactly is her problem with learning. Acquiring diagnoses if needed. Getting necessary accommodations lined up for her for a return to school. Actively trying to find her better peer group; and that niche. Working on educational basics she may have trouble with. Work mainly with treading, writing and math basics, so she will have a strong foundation to build on. That is something she would have very hard time to do while at school. I wouldn't call that copping out, but regrouping. If you live on the bigger area, there are bound to be several clubs and other socializing opportunities for very different interests for her. Find out the options and be creative with it. And remember that group doesn't need to be specifically for her age. Social groups with wider age group can be just as good. [/QUOTE]
