I do not expect DD to accept without question. But I explain it to her in a context that she does understand and why it is done that way.

But it is a Catholic church. The priest is reasonable but you know how some of these women are that run the school part. She is just waiting for DD to "fail" because we are combining 2 years into 1, which she totally opposes. So it is political, religious and ridiculous in one joyous ball.
