[quote=Anonymous]I dont think an anonymous forum is the best place to get feedback. You can contextualize advice if you know who it’s from- like, the person who said just move might be someone who you see as a precious flower anyway and you could ignore that advice. One bit of advice- you ask what you have to lose in this situation, but maybe ask what you have to gain. My kids went from a low FARMS ES to high FARMS MS and HS and I was terrified, and felt bad about being terrified. In the end, what I found is that my kids developed an empathy they wouldn’t have otherwise. They will check themselves now when complaining about being bored staying home on a long weekend for example (at our ES everyone flew off somewhere on those weekends) when I ask what their new friends are doing ... working cleaning houses with their mom, at home taking care of a sibling, etc. It really does put the world in perspective going to school with kids from all SES backgrounds. Good luck, OP. [/quote]
