Madeofmeaning:
I totally agree with the point you’re making. I don’t live in the tristate area, where I live there’s only one main girls high school, where all the girls go. The girls from more relaxed families who were more openly different, got attention from the machaneches (Though sometimes unwanted) But the girls from good families are just expected to be good and no one notices, or chooses not to notice, if they are struggling as I was when I was in school. It reached the point I wasn’t doing anything right besides for dressing right, and no one knew or if they noticed they didn’t say anything at all.
Where I live, there are many yeshiva’s, each on another level, each suited to a type of boy. But for girls there are 2 options: To be in a BY system or not to be.
I definitely think there should be more options for the girls who need it.

Ujm:
“Struggling doesn’t necessarily define one as OTD or, even, at-risk.”
True and thats why I think there should be more options for girls who are struggling and don’t go with the flow as many BY girls seem to do without any thought. There are places for girls who are OTD, but there needs to be a place for those who are struggling yet want to grow.
