[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Uh, school refusal is not something that is related to things as flimsy as "allergies."

Major shifts in mood and motivation like this are a signal flare for something much more serious. You need to dig deep and fast.

Start by looking through his phone and computer. Usually, the root cause of whatever is ailing them will be documented in there either in communications with friends or the sites and apps they're using. Once you've gathered intel on what might be causing your son to detach and disconnect, get help fast. Therapy/counseling, engage the school, etc. Grab every resource you can and don't take anything lightly. Intervention at this stage can save you and him from things really going off the rails.[/quote]

Clearly you do not suffer significantly from seasonal allergies. It can make you feel completely knocked out - my whole family is suffering right now![/quote]

It’s pretty obvious if someone is significantly suffering from seasonal allergies. So, not sure why OP is confused if allergies are impacting her son.

As always, the first thing to do it to TALK to the kid and figure out what’s goin on.[/quote]
