bugger. DD refusing to go to school.

[SheelaNeGoldGig]

she's been every day this term. I thougjt we might have cracked it but it appears not.
She won't say why so i have no idea.
I've been working nights so have to sleep so can't deal with it today.
Bugger. Damn. Hell.

[creamteas]

sorry, hope your morning gets better whether or not you manage to get her in.

[coff33pot]

make yourself a cuppa and resign yourself she is going in late x

Perhaps a cuddle and a chat might resolve what's up or could she be heading for a cold or something ther are a few around x

[Iceflower]

Sorry to hear this. You need to look after yourself for now, as you're rightly doing.

coff has made some good suggestions

[EllenJaneisstillnotmyname]

So sorry Sheela. Were you away last week? Might this be her 'punishing' you for the change in routine?

[SheelaNeGig]

Hmmmm. She went in this afternoon. Come home and is all sad and silent in her room. Something has upset her and rocked the boat. No idea what though. Grrrr.

[cornsconkers]

oh no
hopefully it's just a one off
is there a contact at school that you can speak to?

[coff33pot]

Does she like writing sheela? would she write down a story of whats upsetting her? or would she do a drawing with you and discuss the picture afterwards.

Maybe you would find out that way x

[SheelaNeGig]

Its definitely a school thing. I think a culmination of a few things last week. I'll give a ring tomorrow if she's still miserable.

[cornsconkers]

how is dd today?

[SheelaNeGig]

Well!!!

Had a massive do this morning because DD1 called her stupid. Kicked in the door (again) and trashed her room (again) but as i was at work i missed it. But once i got home she was ok to go so i gave her a lift.
She's very sad and I don't know why. Something is going on. Usually she'd not be affected by DD1 so much.

I have had words with DD1.

[cornsconkers]

hope you get to the bottom of it all. A crystal ball would be nice with teens.
it's good that she went in though in the end
