School refusal and school anxiety, one tiny swap for hard mornings. When a child won’t go to school, “we’re late” lands like pressure on a nervous system that already thinks it isn’t safe. Swap urgency for co‑regulation: name the alarm, lower the demand, then move in tiny, safe steps. If tomorrow might be hard, save this line. Use it once tonight in a calm moment, then again in the morning when the alarm spikes. Comment TOOLKIT for the two exercises + link. - Jules ♥️ #schoolrefusal #schoolanxiety #schoolavoidance
