Update: Another day of school refusal, and not coming home. Finally he comes into a very upset (teary) Mum.

So we wait while i recover, get past the few lies i fully expected him to try to feed me, and sat and talked, and i mean really talked. So i think i got a better handle on the few issues that are the main prob, so i'll be tackling them tomorrow or next week if possible. So school appointments to be made (both at current and possible new), find a private councilor for him to talk, doctor's appointment (i'm pretty sure he's got a bit of depression happening), & mental health unit to see where else i can go (tho he doesnt want to go back here, doesnt like the bloke apparently...fair enough).

Fingers crossed i can get this kid some help and peace back into this household...
