I'm with you on this one willow. OP- I agree with a PP about talking him through what is going to happen and supporting it- but... I also feel like if its a power struggle and you don't take him that is a big battle lost. If it is anxiety and you don't take him your confirming fears. Unfortunately either way he needs to at least settle (not even thrive) before you change anything IMO. I have a child with anxiety and I have anxiety - I worry Kind will be much worse if you concede now.
Take time to talk him through each step before hand, tell him what is ok (feeling scared, etc...) and what's not(screaming, not walking to class, etc...) be very consistent.
Ik it is so hard as a parent but I really think your on the right track!:hug:
