7 Yr Old, Won't go back to school

Turtle

Hi, Has anyone else had trouble getting their kids back to school after lockdown ? My 7 yr old  ( ASD ) nephew is refusing. His Mum has tried staying with him for a awhile at the school but he won't let her leave. He has attachment issues with his Mum and he has never liked school. He doesn't even like talking about it. 

Has anyone had a similar experience or have you any tips that maybe worked for you ?

Thanks.

  • Wow thats sounds like a flash back to my childhood, and I was completely undiagnosed. I had the same issues but back in the 1970's you really didn't have much choice but to do what you were told. I have found that my life skills, learn't over a long time have really suffered over lockdown. Stuff that seemed so easy now seems so stressful and overwhelming. I think maybe engaging him with what ever his obsession is would be a good start, and give him time.
