But children who are being harmed at home can act up in school as a cry for help. Most of the time teachers don't recognise the behaviour as a cry for help and just see a "badly behaved" child instead. So the children who would benefit from counselling or extra support in schools are excluded or suspended instead, and where do they go? Back home where all their problems are. He had ADHD and what looks like a terrible family, he wasn't going to be a child who always controlled his emotions and behaviour and coped all the time, especially not in an education system that doesn't see mental health as a priority. The first time Archie was excluded from school, the school said he was hiding under tables and attempting to run away, both are behaviours that children who have trauma show, they also mentioned that they thought Archie had attachment disorder which most of the time is caused by neglect and abuse in early childhood. Hollie mentioned once about Archie having attachment disorder and she acted like it is nothing, she would never admit how it can be caused because she would have to admit to her failures.
