404: Does Your Kid Not Want to Go To School? Here’s How to Help Your Kid (and Yourself) with Alyssa Campbell, M.Ed

Ever had one of those mornings where your kid acts like getting dressed for school is the same as being asked to fight a dragon? Suddenly their legs don’t work, they’ve got mystery stomach aches, and you're two seconds away from faking your own disappearance. Yep. We’ve been there. In this episode, we’re diving into why kids refuse school—because it’s rarely about laziness or “just being difficult.” Guest Alyssa Campbell,M.Ed., emotional development expert and author of Big Kids, Bigger Feelings, joins us to explain what’s really going on beneath the surface and how you can help your child without turning every morning into a full-blown meltdown.
