Hi Guys
looking for some solidarity to make me feel better.
My daughter is in year 8 at an all girls grammar and I am really struggling this year with her awful attitude towards me and her famly. I am convincing myself its because of the all girl enviroment and quite affluent peer group that she looks down on us mere mortals. Every day involves shouting, screaming, stomping, door slamming much "I hate you's" along with the make up, rolled up skirt and hours of preening in the mirror. We are at our whits end and dread every new day and what it will bring...to the point I am wondering if I should withdraw her from this prestigeous school and put her in a co-ed grammar instead.
Any views would be welcomed...even just to hear anyone else out there is going through something similar would help!
