[quote=Anonymous]Post on the SN forum. Lots of us there have had kids with school refusal. It’s not as easy as just forcing them to go or seeing a therapist. Having a meeting with the school counselor is the first step, which is what you are doing. Many good ones will work with you. Some will help you develop a plan to work with your kid to get them back in school. My kid ultimately finished through a virtual school, was able to get a job during that time and is going to college, away, now. It’s not all terrible if they need to stop and work but this took years of work to get to this point. Forcing school at the worst of refusal would have backfired for us. We worked with a therapist and the school counselor. [/quote]
