[quote=Anonymous]I like to just let the chips fall where they may because I'm afraid if I try to control anything too much, it might negatively impact my daughter in some other way.  For example, I was annoyed that my 1st grader didn't get put in a class this year with ANY of her friends from Kindergarten.  Of the four or so girls who all hang out together, three of them ended up together in one class and my daughter was put in a different one with no "friends."  And I found out later that initially she WAS put with that group of girls b/c the teachers knew they all were friends and thought it'd be nice to keep them together but then, in order to balance out the number of girls in each class, someone had to move and it ended up being my daughter.

Well, turns out that she got one of the best teachers in first grade as a result of that switch and she has made new friends and thrived this year.  So it ended up being a good situation after all.

I have found in the past that when I meddle too much with things in life (all things in life...not just school related),  that had I just left things alone, everything still would have turned out okay or even better.  So now I try to just let it ride.[/quote]
