I need some help with a situation in a book of mine...as I am not a parent myself, I must ask the opinions of the parents here on AW!
(The situation pertains to a father, but I don't see why mothers can't provide input, as well.)
You are a single father with two children, a daughter and a son. The daughter is the important child in this circumstance. Your wife died several years back, and you have raised the children alone.
Your daughter is seventeen now, halfway through her senior year. Being your only girl left, she's the apple of your eye and still your darling "little girl." You have always assumed she had some kind of "abilities" but have never pursued the topic with her.
A stranger working with a company out-of-state knows about her abilities and wants to take her to that company, without your accompaniment (You still have to feed your son!) but with your consent.
On one hand, you'll both figure out what is up with her. On the other hand, she'll be gone with someone you hardly know.
What would it take for you to let her go? Would you let her go, or say no? All responses will help, thank you!
