I know about the changes mrsmac but that will not stop her from moving out. Unfortunately Sarah has been offered a job next year doing stuff with horses (her dream job) so not sure if she will finish yr 10 or just take the job and forget about education. Maybe I can speak to this lady that wants to employ her and see if she will hold the job until Sarah has finished her schooling. Maybe she means after Sarah has finished yr10. What an incentive to do well.
