[quote=Anonymous]The schools do not help the situation at all. I have a high schooler at a Big3 and he/she had something really difficult happen to him/her at school this school year. I'm being purposefully vague because I don't want to out ourselves. We reached out to the school (for the first time EVER in our years at the school) and met with someone in leadership (not the HOS but a level below). The response we got was (and I'm quoting this) was "this will probably cost him/her all his friends. He/she needs to learn to suck it up and get stronger". We were floored. My husband (who is about the chillest person I know) was angry. He was downright mad. Anyway, if this kid was not well on his/her way to graduating we would have pulled the kid. As it is, we did not apply our younger child. These schools can just be toxic be in the name of "independence and ownership, etc". [/quote]
