[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 669079, member: 11791"] OK, so then the next area of investigation is... school. What is it about school that is causing anxiety? It can be a combination of factors... - at this age, school just got a lot harder - from learning basic skills, to having to use them on a daily basis. If you don't get the basic skills mastered, you tend to get lost in the next layer. - social skills are vital for kids in school - and kids are brutal with those who don't "get it". - auditory processing disorders can make it difficult to follow instructions, listen to stories being read, or participating in general in a classroom setting. In particular, this tends to be treated as "not paying attention" or being lazy or bad attitude. - sensory challenges - can cause overload really fast, and school is loaded with sensory challenges if you are sensitive - chalk on a board, the squeak of erasers, runners on floors, paper rustling... and so on! - size of school can be overwhelming [/QUOTE]
