Disliked school

a child is crying“I have a six-year-old son, who goes to grade 0. Unfortunately, as he can, this is how you defend yourself against school. Hides, runs away, when I leave him in class – Cry. After a few minutes (as the teacher claims) calms down, but the next day it repeats itself. The teacher says, that the son is very impatient and gets angry easily, discourages, when something goes wrong with him. What should I do, to combat the child's reluctance to go to school, to understand it, what I explain to him?”

You write about your son's unjustified reluctance to go to school. But it seems to me, that the child has reasons, for which he does not like her. Perhaps they are childish, incomprehensible for you (perhaps even a child does not understand them himself or cannot talk about them), but they do exist. Most likely, the child is afraid of something.

Please find out, what is going on. If this reluctance appeared after the first days of my stay at school, its causes are to be looked for right there. Perhaps the son is a hypersensitive child. So something could have happened at school, which did not make a big impression on another toddler, but your son was very touched. If, on the other hand, the reluctance to go to school made itself felt, before anything else could happen, it is likely, that the son is simply afraid of parting with the Lady, new situations, people.

Maybe, before he started his education in a kindergarten, someone threatened him with school? If, despite your best efforts, you will not be able to identify the causes of your son's fears, I advise you to contact the school counselor or specialists from the Psychological and Pedagogical Clinic, who, after receiving additional information about the son, will be able to identify the sources of the child's behavior. I recommend this route the more, that the child's attitude is typical of the younger preschool age, not school.

I guess, that the conditions of the son's disturbing behavior should be sought either in the family, or in the current development process and possibly in the diseases that the child has experienced.

I am also convinced, that my son's behavior is not a disregard for your words, but a manifestation of a fear stronger than he is.
