Eight phrases you’ve probably heard this week if you’ve got a child struggling with school. Eight things her body is actually trying to tell you underneath them.
The car one gets me every time - “just five more minutes” that never turns into going in. It was never about the clock. Her body was buying time against a space it had already flagged as unsafe.
You can’t logic a child out of a state their body’s already in. Naming what’s actually happening is step one.
My daughter missed over 100 school days on one year alone . She went on to graduate high school with entry into her first choice university and degree.
You can get here too.
Save this for the next hard morning - and follow for more decodes like it.
With care,
- Jules ❤️
