Ohh don't know when this happened but apparently they're now calling "school refusal" Emotionally Based School Avoidance instead. Which okay my response may also be "emotionally based" because I can barely read anything on that topic without getting angry anyway, but sarcasm incoming: Yay you came up with a new term that doesn't sound like it's blaming kids for doing a deliberate thing, and instead sounds clinical and detached! Woo you updated your pathologising method for kids dealing with an awful environment! Whoop-de-fucking-do to you now tell me what are you doing to change the schools? The schools, not the kids. Please tell me you're not still teaching the kids that it's them who need to change. What are you doing to provide accommodations and prevent bullying? Answer quickly.
