I wrote on Mumsnet last year about a really hard time i was having with my teen daughter who was mixing with the wrong girls - not trying at school and seemed to be making everyoone (including herself) properly miserable
I dont want to link to the threads as it was a sad time and want to leave it to the past
But...
We fought and fought for her to move classes and eventually and reluctantly school agreed.
Almost instantaneously her attitude at home changed and to be frank her mood seemed to brighten. She is still lazy and things like bedroom issues have been left to by the wayside but we dont care as she is a delight again and no longer causing any upset.
She has got herself a job which she loves and is a happy girl again
WELL .....tonight she has told us she has been awarded 'Most improved Pupil' in the year group!!
Please join me in being so overjoyed and proud of her!
