Moreover, it is common for a child does not want to go back to school after being ill, preferring to extend the warm feeling of being cared for at home.
In exceptional cases, parents should consider whether there are other reasons why the child is unwilling to return to school.

For making me to go to a typing institution,my paternal uncle he himself joined with me in the institute after is Ph.D - he acquired his Doctorate and it is needless to learn typing but to make interest in me he did like this. No children will refuse to go to school on any reason. The reasons are just to afraid of seperation from parens;afraid about the teachers;etc., To avoid this you may initially make your child as friends to the neighbourhood children (of his age and school going) for playing etc., Day by day your child will defenitely start going to school with them. Everything is in your (parents) hand - Do not beat/scold the child on any occasion.
