Registering for school in September

[beastess]

Good luck and good for your daughter. She will probably do best if she can learn as much Spanish as possible before she starts in September. She has a few months, at any rate.

Hello Iola,

It's very difficult to give an instant answer to a question like that, but my inclination would probably be to go along with your daughter's wishes. There would be no point in forcing her into a situation that she does not accept.

The only thing I would say is that she should be as well informed as you are in advance about the possible pitfalls. If she still wants to go after that then I think in your position I would say that she can do things her way for a year but I would persuade her to agree that you "reserve the right" to reassess the situation after a year if you really felt that the decision had been a bad one.

Hope that's some help.

Jane
