My 14 year old daughter hates school. She thinks it's a waste of her time and literally does the absolute minimum but sometimes she does nothing. She won't complete assignments, homework and sometimes just won't bother to go to a class but sits in the toilet block instead. She attended a private school from grade 7 to 10 and loved it from a social aspect but did as little work as humanly possible. She asked to go to a government school because she knew a couple of girls there so we thought it was worth a try because nothing else was working and she was the one who instigated the move. So we moved her. It has made no difference. She says she likes the school better than the previous one (because there are less rules) but just hates school.  We have worked with both schools to bring about a change. They have been so good offering different classes and pathways to get where she will be happy. It makes no difference. In her head she just wants to leave and work. We've told her she is better to finish grade 12 and she only has just over 2 years left. She's just not interested. We don't have a clue what to do next? We've tried talking to her, friends and family have tried talking to her, peers and older young adults have tried talking to her. None of it has helped. She simply doesn't care.   Any ideas or help would be much appreciated ... View more
