    I don't know if you guys with school refusers have seen the other recent threads about kids who have dropped out of college and become recluses?

    Home school may be a short term strategy but it really shows, in my eyes at least, that something has gone wrong and that problem needs to be sorted. Taking a refuser and sending him to college without sorting out his problems is not likely to go smoothly. College can be better than school in some ways but it is also a major disrpution and support and assistance from colleges can be patchy or non-existant.
