For the school aged child, like the younger child, grief crisis may interrupt age appropriate activities and force a child to address issues for which the child is not developmentally prepared. Children this age might believe that certain behavior will bring their loved ones back.
It is important for every child to attend school. Children have the right to be in school until they are 21 if they have not gotten a diploma. You are responsible for making sure that your child attends school from age 5 (you may sign a form asking that your child starts school at 6 or 7) to age 18 (or graduation).e sure to go to the meetings to talk with school staff about how to help your child. When the school meets with you, they should talk about ways to fix these problems so your child can feel comfortable at school. You have the right to ask that your child be evaluated for special education services. Do this in writing.
