[quote=Anonymous]My DD was a great candidate for EM and really wanted to go but got cold feet the August before. She is also a perfectionist with anxiety and was worrying about all the things OP described. We made her go. We said we were open to re-evaluating at the end of a year but encouraged her to give it a go with an open-mind. By the end of the first quarter, she had fully acclimated, was making friends and liking school. It really changed the course of her life in a positive way and even she has said it was one of the best parenting decisions we ever made. YMMV, of course, but IME it is not helpful, particularly with anxious kids, to avoid the knew and unknown. Having her try a new MS meant that trying other big new things (like college) was easier.[/quote]
