[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 562044, member: 14557"] I was also thinking if you could make escorting her to school a regular practise for now? For me the 'you need to walk from car to school and if you don't co-operate, I will have to call someone to escort you' sounds little punitive, if for her it's can't, not won't-matter. Would it be possible to sell it to her as her needing some extra help with this right now and as an accommodation instead of 'if you don't co-operate, we do this and that'-thing. If she is frequently failing in the simple task of walking from car to school alone, that has to be quite disheartening for her. Not getting her to school is of course not an option (every day away would just make it much more difficult for her to go again) but taking away an option of walking be herself would also take away the option to fail in that. If she is successful in walking to the school escorted, maybe that should be an only option for some time. Instead of having to start her school day often by failing, she would be able to start it with successfully doing the preplanned thing. [/QUOTE]
