Is it worth the struggle? (not a dire post)

After about an hour of struggling with my daughter to get her ready for school, I finally got her there.  She was all,  "I don't want to go!  Why can't you unenroll me?"  

Picking her up?  Much happier.  I asked her to remember that next week when she goes, and she said, "Okay.  (pause)  Well, I'll try."

This happens every single day she goes to public school.  No exceptions. 

Today the bribe was that we would go to the zoo after she got out of school.  That greased the works and she finally got ready.  (Normally there are no bribes.)

The zoo was nice.  Hot.  Too hot for March.  I hope we aren't in for a dry year.
