For her but would like to
Just bag the entire thing and restart in a year.

I'm pp above who said many kids aren't stepping up to the plate on "college to do list" - the above also describes my child (who also is not at their preferred option - but one that is great).

I wouldn't look for the reason - just make sure she has the mental health support, if necessary.[/quote]
