I'm at my wits end.
Over the last couple of years, my ds has refused to go to school at least one day every fortnight.
Lately, it has got much worse and I am lucky if he attends school three days a week.
He is too big for me or dh to drag out of bed.
He has been asked many times if he is being bullied or if something else is worrying him, but we have drawn a blank.
He has been investigated in hospital for health problems and is now on medication for stomach migraine.
However, I strongly suspect that he just wants to sleep at home rather than go to school.
His attendance has dropped to 67% and he has his GCSEs next year.
I am terribly worried.
Does anyone have any experience or wisdom on this issue?
