LAYING" at school. (say positive things about the school). When my boy whined "Not going to school!" every morning, I just ignored him and got him to leave the house as quickly as I could. I would try to stay calm, not to lose my temper. (Make him realise that he has to go to school, no-matter-what). On the way to school, I would point to the people who was waiting for the bus or walking on the street and told him that everyone needed either to go to school or to work. After 3 weeks of trying, he told me yesterday, "School is fun", although he still whines and cries a little when he goes to school every morning. I know my mission has not been completed yet, I still have a long way to go. But I know things will work out finally.
