[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would you assure her that won't happen? That's not something you can be sure of.

I got in a a fight in HS. I looked out the window and a girl sitting next to me said "What are YOU looking at?" I said nothing, and she said, "So you think I'm nothing?" and then sucker punched me in the hallway after the class was over. People pick fights for no reason sometimes - whether they're amped up about something, or just have a screw loose.

Just go over with your DD the steps to take IF her wig is snatched. Maybe just like always having an emergency tampon she wants to carry an emergency scarf or hat if it's about keeping her scalp covered. If it's religious point out it wouldn't be HER sin but the sin of the person who yanked off her wig. [/quote]

Sigh. You're so foolish. High school is anxiety-provoking as it is, and you never want to make it worse as a parent. Also, you want to educate kids on correct risk assessment. There is a FAR HIGHER likelihood that fights will be picked between people who already know each other, than complete strangers, your experience notwithstanding.

OP does not need to say that this will never happen to her child. She needs to say the risk of this happening is so low that her DD does not need to worry about it.

Seriously. Have some common sense.[/quote]
