[QUOTE="Josie, post: 21165, member: 1792"] I don't have any advice as far as the school goes, but my difficult child did this at least once. I made sure she didn't watch TV and didn't have any fun. One time, she decided to go to school after she calmed down several hours later so I took her. I also told her that if she didn't go, I was going to call the school and ask what they did about kids skipping school. It's a private school so I'm not sure what they would do. I'm also not sure if I really would have done it. Luckily, her troubles at home never spilled over into school and she apparently didn't want them to so she went. I know she did stay home at least one full day one time. I didn't write her a note but she told them she was sick. Our school doesn't require a note. I'm not sure if this is helpful but I did want you to know that just because he did this today doesn't mean it will always be a problem. We all have days where we don't feel like doing what we need to do and he may have just needed a day away from school. Now that I think about it, my difficult child just stayed home with a questionable stomach ache yesterday. Maybe this is a more sophisticated way of staying home than just pitching a fit and refusing like she used to. [/QUOTE]
