I'm worried about dd. She did not want to go to school again today. I had talked to my Mom this morning and she was telling me that dd told her that she didn't want to go to school (last night on the phone). When Mom asked her why dd replied that "We don't do anything new. We just do the same work and I'm done before everyone and I have to just wait until everyone else is done. It's so boring. I want to do new stuff." Well this is even more detailed than dd had told me. So, I left a message for dd's teacher. I plan on meeting with her as soon as we can.
I hate that dd feels this way about school all of the sudden. She used to love it and to see her so uninterested bothers me. It's just so not like her. Luckily she has a very good teacher who told me months ago "If dd ever seems bored, and I dont notice it first, please tell me." So I feel comfortable in speaking directly with her but I will try to use the word "unhappy" more often than the word "bored"....although I know it will come up.
I'll keep you posted.
