Jordan,

I'm sorry you're unable to go. I know that's really frustrating. Your mom could have handled the situation better, of course.

I think that they do have your best interests in mind.

When you're on your own, which sounds like its soon, you can do whatever you want. That's the good part of being older and independent.

Hang in there. Its hard when parents are less than sensitive to your feelings.

September will be here before you know it.

Hugs,
Kelly
