thank you all so much! in our province, she is not required to attend until she's 6 - so not till Feb of next year.

the only thing that really gives me pause is that on top of everything else, we're dealing with her perfectionism (slightly hard = time to quit!) so i would need to balance/control that message, but... i'm also at the point where i really can't just let this get any worse.

i'm very encouraged by the idea that we could just get outta dodge. thanks again, all - it's such a relief to find people who don't dismiss what we're seeing in our kid. it's been a brutal year for that.


Every Sunday it brooded and lay on the floor. Inconveniently close to the drawing-room door.
