Posted about this before but need more advice, would you send a child to school if they was extremely distressed and screaming and crying not to go? Since last week my dd who loved school has been refusing to go, she gets to the gate but won’t go in, the receptionist will try to encourage her in but she will refuse she then goes to get her teacher who will try to get her in but the same thing refusing to go, this morning was horrific they carried her in and she was screaming and crying I really don’t want to send her in if she is this distressed but I had an important meeting today. I’ve tried to get to the bottom of what is making her not want to go but she won’t say, all I can see is that this has been since they were asked to make Father’s Day cards at school last week (dds dad is fully absent) she was upset that day when she came out and hasn’t wanted to go since then. She is in reception, would you send a child kicking and screaming? I feel terrible about it today.
