Today, the headmistress (owner/administrator) of the school and the guidance counselor are meeting to discuss ds's reluctance to go to school and to write. They have both observed him in the classroom, and they are coming up with a plan and calling me after. They said they are trying to determine if there are adjustment issues, perfectionism issues, writing difficulties, attention problems, or if this is just part of ds's personality. She said the counselor will provide some therapy/counseling sessions if warranted. I left ds at school today fighting back tears with his lip trembling. I cried the whole way home. : (
I'm sorry to hear that, and I really hope the school can help. DS is having some "I hate school" issues and that's bad enough, even though in his case it doesn't seem as though he "really" hates school.
