So, when we stumbled upon a 30-day program designed to help kids overcome school refusal, we decided to give it a shot. The plan was simple: for 30 days, my sister would have to go to school, no matter what. No exceptions. No excuses. It sounded easy, but we knew it wouldn't be.
After 30 days, my sister had made significant progress. She was attending school regularly, participating in class, and even started to enjoy it. It wasn't easy, but it was worth it.
As the days went by, I started to notice small changes. My sister was smiling more, laughing more, and even started to make a few friends. She was still struggling, but she was trying. And that was all that mattered.
If you're struggling with school refusal or know someone who is, I want you to know that there's hope. It takes time, effort, and patience, but with the right support and approach, it's possible to overcome.
