Rita comes back to Frank's office for her weekly tutorial. As she didn't show up to Frank's house for lunch as she had promissed, he is a bit upset with her. However, Frank soon finds out that she had a fight with her hueband and went to his house anyway, but she didn't came in. I think that the reason why Rita behaved in that way is that she thinks she doesn't fit in with Frank and the rest of the people in the house and, at the same time, she doesn't belong to her husband's or her family's way of living anymore either. She thought that Frank and the others were going to make fun of her because she is not at "their level" yet, and she has trouble with her husband because she is different fron him too. So she's in a turning point where she will have to make decisions and choose which way she will live for the rest of her life. Rita feels that she doesn't know what kind of clothes she should wear, what sort of wine she should buy and how to behave. The only thing she knows is that she is doing it all wrong and that she wants to change, but she still doesn't know how.

Who can tell Rita how to behave/talk/dress, Adri? And should school accept any responsibility for this nasty stage of "isolation" in which education has placed Rita?
I can't but feel concerned about Rita at this stage... If she was a student of yours, how would you feel?
Cheers,
