[quote=Anonymous]I have a 10 y.o. who has hated school since he left daycare. Kids do tend to say something is "boring" if they find it stressful or uncomfortable, so that's one thought. Some gifted kids tend to be very emotionally intense and tend to dislike doing work that they don't chose to so, so that's another. And kids with undiagnosed disabilities (whether anxiety or ADHD, or LDs like dyslexia) also tend to dislike school. Finally, he could just hate sitting inside all day. Since your DS seems to do well at school, it could be that he's smarter than you think and just board. Or that the teachers aren't noticing learning problems because he's still too young (smart kids with learning problems may perform on grade level, but really should be performing better). I would just keep on eye on it, keep open dialogue with the teachers, and put into place morning routines that may address transition issues. [/quote]
