🧵1/2 Good Morning Britain - which ones of the below counts as skiving? 1. My child didn't go to school because she is depressed and locked herself in her room for days and won't talk to anyone. 2. My child has been self harming and talking about suicide
Please change your guidelines and ban the word 'skiving' Good Morning Britain Many of us have children who can't go to school because of anxiety, ADHD or autism. We get blamed for absence when we are protecting distressed children. Your reporting is a kick in the teeth. Please reply.
No reply from Neil Thompson or Good Morning Britain on the use of the word 'skivers' in their discussion about school absenteeism so I've sent this email to them today. If you support it, please retweet. @youngminds @mindcharity @AFNCCF please support fair reporting for children in distress.
