Your daughter will find her way. Trust me. I've seen this one. She will go to school when she is ready. She's just enjoying being a Goth and young.
I did the things you wish your daughter did on a traditional timeline. I wish I had stopped out a bit and smelled some flowers. Her beauty won't save her from some situations, and thanks to you, she'll be smart enough to figure it out. She doesn't sound like the women (and men) I know who were ruined by beauty.
My son is handsome. As a young boy, he gets female attention. He will also be a musician (it's starting already). And I am trying to make sure that he understands that these things will not pay the bills.
These letters make me laugh. Like clusters with like. Normal folks date normal folks, those who aspire to shallow standards find gold digging, manipulative, and douchebag behavior. Desperation attracts predators. Doesn't matter what sex. But the regulars are out with knives I see. Normal men find partners pretty quickly.
