Causes Of Failure

School phobia, or school refusal, is relatively uncommon. It can be distinguished from other causes of failure to attend school, such as simple reluctance or truancy, in that going to school or being in school evokes severe anxiety in the child. School phobia is a manifestation of a neurotic disorder, and is specifically evoked by compulsory school attendance.
