Many kids that claim to hate school are struggling in their classes, and need extra help. Ask your daughter or her teacher what she is having a hard time in, and maybe get her some tutoring after school. Also have her eyes checked. Sometimes kids that have poor eyesight do poorly in school because they cannot see what the teacher has written on the blackboard and they are too embarrassed to say anything.

Generally, when a student who has previously liked school decides he or she hates school, there is an underlying issue. I have gone through this with my son twice. The first time, it turned out he was being bullied by an older student. The second, it was because he was really struggling with the work. Have a long conversation with your daughter, and ask her very specific questions about school. Talk with her about her school work, in each subject area, and find out if there is an issue with the work. My son is also in 4th grade this year, and our experience has been the expectations are much higher as far as responsibility, organizational skills, work load, etc. Many 4th graders struggle with this, and aren't able to verbalize what the issues are. There may be some learning issues that haven't been apparent until now, as students at this level are working more independently. A bullying issue can cause lots of school anxiety, and a child being bullied may be afraid to tell what is happening. Take the time to really talk to and listen to your daughter, and if you are not getting answers from her, speak to her teacher and/or counselor at school - they may be able to help. Good luck!

If she has just started hating school: There is probably something social going on that she isn't telling you, like her best friend isn't her friend anymore, or people are bullying her.
If she has always hated school: Tell her how lucky she is to get a good education! Tell her that she wont be able to do much as a grown up if she doesn't get a good education. If her grades start falling, get her a tutor.

The fact of life is everybody hates going to school in childhood. Its nuthing serious.Just go through this checklist..

1. Is she struggling hard with studies?
If yes, help her and ask her teachers to do the same.

2.Is there someone who is bothering her?
Its a bad world, try to find out...

If everything seems to be ok..tell her that she can skip the school if she likes..YES. U may feel that i m crazy, but this works..Kids are used to going to school..and they have their bit of fun also..though they have to study.Let her take off... but dont spend time with her..she will enjoy for 2-3 days..but eventually she"ll start getting bored..becoz other kids of her age will be at school..Also keep on telling how other kids went to school and performed some activities..like sports or picnics...then slowly ask her whether she wants to rejoin school...I m sure she will..and this time willingly...
This may take a few days..but she"ll start liking the school...

First you need to figure out why she hates it this year, is she bored,is the work to hard or too easy, is she being bullied or made fun of? My daughters did the same thing, my oldest was bored because the work was too easy, and my younger daughter was being picked on, when I figured out the problems then I fixed them.

u can't make someone like something that they don't. no one likes school all the time.

u can however ask her how why she feels that way about it. maybe she is being picked on. so then u would need to go to the school to take care of it.

she could be struggling, so than ur action would be to get a tudor.

she could also just be bored with it and says she hates it because there are other things she would rather be doing.

I think most kids do like school because of the social aspect. If your daughter doesn't like school, there may be a social reason, such as bullying or something.

I would definitely check that out.

Better have her talk to a therapist before this gets out of hand. No one likes school, but she should have friends to see that she likes while shes' at school. Is she being bullied or bothered by anyone? that can make a child hate school.

Most kids dont like school! Some might when they are younger but most will not if they do not get interested in something they will never like school! It is usually because they do not like there teachers!
