Hello everyone. Six months ago DS14 was not happy in school but generally went, albeit late. Now he has changed schools to one of his choice and refuses to go or goes so late that it still counts as an absence. He has given up everything he used to like (playing and watching football), has started vaping and lying around basically doing nothing. He is bright but the school are trying to get him to change to a different, easier school as he doesn't do any work. (We are not in the UK and he is at the equivalent of a grammar school). He wants to stay but refuses to do any work. He has been asked by the school to see the school psychologist and go to extra lessons to make up the missed work. He won't do either. I know he is unhappy but I really don't know what to do. He refuses any help and is absolutely horrible to us, especially me. I desperately want to help him but also need help myself as the whole situation is so stressful and we are all walking on eggshells as he is so angry with us. Help!!
