But it's not just that they won't go to school in the morning, it's that in first grade it started out as
You know, I I'm gonna have a tummy ache.
I have a tummy ache every
month or so and and then s you know, as the school year gets on and the demands of the school year go on and the parent may not even identify that it's the demands of the school year.
They'll just say, you know, as the school year goes on,
You know, he just kept saying, you know, his stomach hurt, so we went to a doctor and we got him checked out for food allergies, but everything's fine.
And then, you know, he he did okay over the summer and by second grade he just refused to go to school and he would sit in the car.
And he would say he wanted to go to school.
Um, and he would get in the car and he would have one foot out the door of the car with the t car door open and he
He would start crying and just say I I can't and he would freeze and he couldn't go in.
And then okay, so we get a five oh four plan or an IEP in place and then we have somebody from the school come in and greet him and help him come into the school and then he gets acclimated.
to the school year and again then we start to have something going on.
As the school year progresses where
maybe he gets used to going to school but then at home it becomes a three hour chore to do his to brush his teeth.
where yesterday he could brush his teeth and now all of a sudden he's in this phase where he won't brush his teeth.
And it doesn't necessarily seem to be a sensory issue, you know, of the toothbrush touching his mouth.
It's just he he doesn't seem like he wants to do it and he gets he gets really mad and he has these rages and and then he'll tell these elaborate stories
To try to get out of brushing his teeth like
I want to tell you what happened with this kid at school today or he'll go get his Batman cape and start acting out a scene from Batman that has nothing to do, of course, with the brushing of the teeth.
Or he you know, he may get on the ground kicking and screaming until he's red in the face, pulling out his hair so he doesn't have to brush his teeth.
