Hi All,
I would really welcome some advice please! My 5 year old son has always had separation anxiety and has never liked going to school. But since going back after the summer holidays he is even worse! From the moment he opens his eyes in the morning he is distressed and anxious. Then its a battle to get him dressed/in the car/out of the car/into school.....he cries, screams, kicks, shakes, lies on the pavement....its awful! The school have been no help whatsoever! I swear they think its me being 'too soft' If i do manage to get him into school, then a teacher will come along and literally yank him from me and tell me to go!
He is a very bright boy (he could read before he even started school) and he wants to learn, he just hates the school environment - the noisy kids, the teachers who shout etc.....I am seriously considering home schooling him, but i don't want to fail him! Has anyone else had a similar experience?
