Geez, my kid has had one horrible surprise after the other! [View all]

It's awful. And just when we think she's found blue skies, BAM! lightning strikes with another betrayal, false accusation, loss, punishment or disappointment. It's like living in a soap opera. And it's not like bad things are happening in response to my kid's actions. It's all weird stuff that we could never have imagined or anticipated. (For example, a fellow student made an unfounded accusation toward several students. Before the truth came out, my kid had already been punished with loss of a major opportunity that she had worked on for months. None of the other kids had any consequences.)

I'm trying to stay positive, but it feels unending and it's exhausting. Can you send her some good vibes, please?
