[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here,  children are a lot more resilient then you give them credit for.  She is 12 years old! She doesn't have a clear reason to want to go to private school.  She has only visited the school once.

While speaking to her last night,  she told me she heard from the kids at her school that her public school was a "BAD" school and THAT is the reason she does not want to go there.  This is complete untrue.  Her school is one of the best schools.

So you see posters, 12 years olds don't really know what is best for them after all.  They base their opinions on what they 6th grade friends tell them.

She woke up this morning in good spirits.  Hugged and kissed me and is now playing with her siblings.

No I felt guilty.  But do you really expect me to go my entire life feeling bad about my poor handling of this matter.  No I won't! She will get over it, kids bounce back quickly.  Hiccups are a reality and clearly she had the wrong reason for wanting to go private.[/quote]
