[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Suck it up. Dealing with boredom is a good skill to learn. There must be SOMETHING that she can occupy her time with. Even if this service trip is to a town similar to where she grew up, I'm sure she could look out the window and observe passers by. Even staring at a parade of ants can teach her something.[/quote] Wanted to add - she could think about how to improve the service trip and give it more structure. When she comes back, she can give constructive feedback to the organizers. And if you decide to let her leave early, you should definitely make her write up a plan for improving the service trip. Make *that* the productive thing she does with the extra three days.[/quote] The organizers don't care or they'd be doing more now. Those service trips are a money grab.[/quote]
