School Refusal - A Parent Perspective. When Your Child Refuses School and Nothing is Working - Jen Harwood

Your child won't go to school. You've tried everything. Nothing is working.

You're not alone - and you're not failing. School refusal is one of the most distressing situations a parent can face, and most of the advice out there doesn't come close to covering what's really happening in your home.

This book was written for the moment when you're out of options and out of energy.

When Your Child Refuses School and Nothing Is Working is a practical, honest guide for parents navigating school refusal, school anxiety, and emotionally-based school avoidance. Written by a mother who lived it - and a coach who has worked with thousands of families - it gives you 12 real strategies you can start using today.

You are not the problem. You are the solution.

Inside you'll find clear guidance on what school refusal actually is, why standard approaches often make it worse, and how to rebuild the connection and safety your child needs to find their way back. No blame. No shame. Just a path forward.

Whether your child has just started refusing or you've been in crisis for months, this book meets you where you are.

The child doesn't need fixing. The family needs a map. This is it.
