[quote=Anonymous]Sorry to hear the outcome, OP. Are you getting a replacement AP? Yours is not the first story like this that I've heard. Our first AP was incredibly homesick in the beginning. It didn't help that she arrived just before New Years. An AP in the neighborhood (who ended up becoming a good friend of her later) invited her out for New Years, really insisted that she go, and she backed out. She also refused to come with our family to a neighborhood party (after I asked her several times & called her from the party). She spent the better part of the next few days crying. HOWEVER, she totally pulled herself out of it. I talked to the LCC, LCC checked in with her regularly, and gradually it improved, and suddenly it was over. One thing I do with the new APs is try to connect them to as many other APs that I can find. Our LCC is good about that. Getting out & doing fun stuff with other APs is key. [/quote]
