<p>The “maybe he’s just resigned” also strikes a chord with me. Our daughter is very stoic - at times she seems really happy at her BS too and has never - other than one or two moments when the roof fell in - been miserable, but I worry that she may be more unhappy/stressed than she is sharing with us. I’m happy though that she is liking school more rather than less and it still seems possible that she could love it by Spring.</p>
