>The amount of stress these kids go through in school today is amazing. It is the same at my daughter's school and the one she attended last year which is 2.5 hours away. Many many rules. There are 'clicks' that each falls into and some get along with girls in other clicks and then there are those girls you don't even look at or they will kick your _ss literally. Highschool is tough.

Just want to say that while adolescence is tough, not every high school is. While Nathaniel would have been fine no matter where he went to school, Solomon had a very tough time in middle school socially, but in high school, it all got better.

BTW, cliques, not clicks. <s>
