It is widely believed that if a child struggles at school, the most common reasons are learning disabilities, such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and many more. Nevertheless, sometimes children, undiagnosed with the forenamed conditions, are unfocused during the lessons, unfollow the teacher’s instructors, do homework carelessly, or do not do it at all, and find any reason not to go to school. Sometimes, they are happy to be sick and stay at home. As a result, they miss the material, get low grades, and even give up school. The reasons vary: it can be bullying at school, toxic relationships in the family, unemployment of one or both parents, poverty, or challenging situations in the country. The forenamed challenges often cause depression and other psychosomatic diseases and unwillingness to learn. This article researches the sources of school struggle and how to tackle and predict this problem.
