[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I had my daughter write me a letter explaining her poor performance and we had a long family discussion last night. Long story short, some of her past insecurities have gotten the best of her this past semester (worrying about her looks, how others view her, her skin complexion, etc). It's been a problem since middle school and, while I can coach her into feeling better about herself, she is terribly self conscious. In short, she's focused more on fitting in with her friends than focusing on school in an attempt to be cool to keep kids from talking about her. She says she's straightened up and has been doing better since the last reporting period. My DH and I are seriously considering homeschooling her because I just don't see a way around getting her to get over these insecurities. So, long story short...we're working on it.[/quote] Is it possible that she still has an anxiety issue or ld? [/quote]
