Schools are zoos, Robinne, some friendlier and fonder of learning than others. So sorry for your worry. I lifted one of my daughters out of one, learning she was retreating to loo cubicles for a bit of peace and quiet at lunch breaks. I did it suddenly, deliberately so, and never regretted it. Anyway, a girl can't win on that score except by liking herself and flicking the vee at the haters. Slender girls get no end of rubbish about the size of their ......
(Deciding to like yourself is GOOD for everyoneand even better, annoys haters)
Oddly enough, it has nothing to do with other kids. Has everything to do with a school that was destroyed physically by earthquakes a few years ago, and then was merged with another school, and forced to work from two separate campuses while they build a new permanent school, and is experimenting with a different class structure for the first time this year...not even the teachers know what the hell is going on, and my daughter is one of those kids who HATES not knowing what she should be doing. When the adults around her can't tell her, or give her contradictory information it freaks her out. Indeed, it's only the presence of a good friend that's kept her at the school this year.
I'm able to go back and start working on KDD properly soon, that's good! I found my ferret's stash and recovered a moisturiser I previously believed had been sacrificed to the gods of Neverwhere.
