[quote=Anonymous]If you've ruled out bullying and mental health issues and don't have any incentives that work, the only thing I can think of that's left is punishment. Take everything away except what he needs - which isn't much. Then when he goes to school, give it back. Other alternatives include looking at a GED program, though if he's not wanting to do the work, that could be a problem. There are also residential programs with schools, but they are very expensive. There are lots of kids who do have school refusal for mental health reasons, so I'd really look at that first. [/quote]
