However, if we talk about it without talking about it, most of the children don’t like going to school, but they still go, that is, it is a normal thing, but their not going to school from home is an alarm bell, in such a situation. What to do
Some of the same points have been discussed in Siddithi magazine.
Experts say that children usually start running away from school when they are a little older i.e. 10, 12 years old, but in later years they start enjoying school while in this age group too. There are children who tend to engage in other activities such as sports or other creative activities instead of studying, so they get bored in school.
Some of such children also start thinking about escape. Childcare experts offer some tips for dealing with this situation.
Family problems
Problems seen around the home also affect children's minds, such as parental fighting, divorce, economic instability, any physical or mental disorder or other conflicts, etc.
Experts say that these problems distract the child from learning, making him irritable, stubborn or fearful, and reduce the focus on learning. Since school is the biggest platform of education, they shy away from going there.
Problems within the school
One of the reasons for running away is that children face learning difficulties, and the reasons may also be indirectly related to family problems.
While other children memorize lessons, complete homework, and get the teacher to check in, children with learning disabilities begin to lose interest in school.
Similarly, being teased or made fun of by other children is also a reason within the school itself, experts see this as an important reason. Some children are very sensitive, and such children usually do not get into fights when they are teased or bullied, sometimes they consider the easy way out instead of complaining.
A hint for parents
When a child does not feel good at school, there are signs in his personality that parents need to pay attention to. He begins to be mostly silent. It shows a certain kind of laziness. He tries to be alone and also eats less.
What should parents do?
These things indicate that the child is having problems in school. In such a situation, experts advise parents to stay calm and control the situation instead of expressing anger.
Find the real problem
Parents should try to find out the reason behind the child's lack of interest in school.
Talk to the child
Regarding this point, experts emphasize to talk in a friendly environment without showing too much resentment and try to find out what is the reason behind the lack of interest in school.
Important things can be found out during other conversations instead of asking directly. Strict avoidance on such occasion is said because it may frighten the child, which will not only prevent him from communicating important things but will increase the problems he is facing.
