School refusal refers to students consistently avoiding school due to emotional distress. For a child struggling with it, the mere thought of attending school brings intense stress or panic, turning emotions into physical symptoms like headaches, stomachaches, or other complaints that vanish outside of school. School refusal requires a dynamic, multidisciplinary approach that brings together parents, teachers, and mental health professionals.
