Well it's probably not bullying then I don't know I think I went through the whole "I wanna leave school and get a job phase" but I never actually went through with it, when I thought about all the effort it would take and having to pay my own way it wasn't worth it and I went back the next year. So her feeling may not last long, but I guess the upside is, if she does leave school and find out that "real" life is just too hard she can always go back or finish it off at TAFE.

I hope she does get a job in the holidays and hates it and goes back though, I always wish I had done better at school, I even considered redoing it at TAFE to try and get better marks.
