ohhh girl, been there....not on the home schooling, but on the transition of growing teens, Sarita had serious issues when things started to challenge her, she has always been ahead of her age because of the way she started schooling in Brazil, and the whole life experience with having 3 cultures, 3 languages she perfectly dominates, the time when they start having to do work is difficult, but know most parents got through it.... I don't believe in advice, I reckon each of us know our kids and every family is a world apart, but if I learn one thing (and she is 26 almost 27 now, so I have been through a lot of different challenges) is that discipline is a NEED..... you can give in once, twice, then, tough love is necessary... there are VERY few things I regret in my life, one of those is not having put my foot on certain things with her.... I'm sure you have millions of people around to talk this through, but (another thing I learned) I found that my scrappers friends understand. and can listen and talk in a way different than family or close non scrappers friends.... if you at any time feel like it, you know you can give us a shout, will be there for you  The page, of course, is marvellous...that power of our scrapping that makes us create beautiful pieces of not so beautiful subjects ... Huggzzzz

I'm really sorry you have to deal with this struggle!
I truly hope things will get better for both of you!
You scrapped it really beautifully! The pencil with the scribble are great as your blue paper and the great vertical line designs, really beautiful. Hope it brings you some scrap therapy (no puns intended).
