Glad you’re able to take an approach to help your daughter’s mental health. Middle school and high school are such difficult times for so many people and its effects can last a lifetime.
Thank you. And definitely about how difficult it can be. A lot of damage has already been done that can never be undone and she still has moments where she breaks down over some minor thing even though she’s been out of school for months now. We were originally thinking she could start at a different public school next year, but I honestly don’t know how long she will need to heal from this. At least she’s overall a happier kid now. Of course, what kid wouldn’t be happy when you can do your math sitting at a cafe drinking bubble tea?
We’ve gone down to a single income because I have to stay home and we’re lucky my wife has a good enough job so that we can afford to do that with some sacrifices. I know a lot of parents aren’t that lucky, unfortunately. A lot of kids who could use this kind of healing are not going to get it. Their state may not offer it and their parents may not be able to afford it. I wish everyone had an option to do this for their kids if that’s what their kids needed.
