Anoreth’s friend will find herself with a little encouragement. Maybe you should ask her if she wants to sit in on one of Anoreth’s classes?
It’s hard for teen girls to find role models, and even harder to believe in them.
Trust the cats.
We hope that Wednesday will show more energy under the influence of the kitten. That’s one reason we wanted a kitten, and also so we’d have someone to cuddle in the winter. You can’t cuddle Wednesday!
Anoreth’s friend used to be homeschooled, but she and her sisters had to go to public school, starting last year, because their father wasn’t paying enough child support to support them. The Goth look is a way of fitting in with a clique in high school, I think, although she dressed “originally” even when they were homeschooled.
Anoreth is a “safe” friend, because she’s not part of the high school social combat, although she knows students, including some of the social leaders, from church and Girl Scouts.
