School Refusal: What’s Important to Know and What Can I Do?

February 02, 2023 12:00 pm EDT/EST

Expert

Kimberly Barton,Ph.D

Challenges & Solutions

School refusal, also known as school avoidance, is a misunderstood and complex challenge. While school refusal is often viewed as misbehavior, in most cases students are simply too anxious to enter the school environment and, in the cases of some students, have trouble leaving their homes at all. Often,children with school refusal behaviors may complain of physical symptoms such as headaches or stomach aches before school, or repeatedly ask to visit the school nurse.

In this class you will learn:

  • The ways in which your own emotions and anxiety about truancy affect your child’s recovery or escalation
  • How to frame the problem for yourself and child in a way that encourages confidence, patience, and compassion
  • Ways to work with the school to support your child through this difficult time

Expert

Stephanie Rondeau,MS, LAT, ATC, CSCS, CHC

Challenges & Solutions

How can we prioritize health and wellness in a positive way? 

There can be a fine line between encouraging healthy habits in our children and creating negative thoughts about body image and self-perception. We want the best for our children, but often forget that they are watching how we treat ourselves and model their own behaviors after that.

  • Excessive shyness, avoiding social situations 
  • Constant worry 
  • Avoiding situations or places because of fears 
  • Complaints of frequent stomach aches or headaches
