[quote=Anonymous]You said it. THEY can’t handle her outbursts. You tell her that the current school is not the best fit for her needs and that your family has chosen for her to attend a different school that you hope will be a better fit. You don’t blame her or let her think it’s her fault. You don’t bad mouth the school you are leaving. It’s just not a good fit. Don’t dismiss or diminish her sadness. It is hard to leave your friends. It can be hard to do new things. Acknowledge that her feelings are real and justified. Also acknowledge that she may not understand your choice, but you are doing what you think is best for her in the long run. [/quote]
