Abba, since Lightbrite is a girl, she doesn’t have to daven in shul. There are different approaches as to whether it’s better for a girl to daven in shul or at home (some people think it’s better for girls to daven at home) but at the end of the day, it’s an individual decision (since both are fine according to halacha). Overall, most Frum women and girls don’t go to shul (although this depends on the community as well as the age/stage of life).

Of course, it is commendable for a girl to go to shul, but it is not required, and if she actually gets up early enough to daven the entire davening, she is doing pretty good!

What you wrote is true for a man though! And for any girl who wants to go to shul and would go if it weren’t raining.
