[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ignore all advice on this thread. Start a new one on the special needs forum. Send an email to the school counselor asap. Start there. Many of us have been through this. Maybe your son is going through something minor. Maybe it’s something serious. Mine had serious school refusal and then a complete mental health breakdown at 14. It was a rough road ahead for a long time. He’s a senior now going to college next year so there can be good news. Tough love and taking things away to force school was not the answer in our situation. [/quote] I will call the school counselor this morning. I don't want to be mistaken thinking he is just being lazy if it's something bigger. I was worried about the front office talking about it and this getting out and him having people gossip about him but that seems silly now. Thanks everyone for your advice and not judging me.[/quote]
