Regarding the reopening of schools, Nagoya City is calling for parents to "constrain their school attendance without forcing them," saying that some children are worried about their new life after a long vacation.

Public elementary and junior high schools will restart in Nagoya on June 1st. Before that, the city's board of education sent a message to parents using a mass email system.

The message states that some children may not be able to go to school because they have a long vacation and are worried about their new life.``Please do not force school attendance, and if you are worried, please do not hesitate to contact the school etc. '' Urges disliked children to go to school.

The Board of Education has sent a message that there is concern that the reopening of this school will be similar to the situation before and after summer vacation, when child suicide will increase.

Shoichi Tanazono, a manga artist living in Nagoya City, who experienced school refusal for nine years as an elementary and junior high school student, said, `` After a long vacation, there are some people who are social workers who do not want to go to the company, and originally I am not good at school. I think that children may feel strongly that they do not want to go. We want them to value their feelings rather than forcefully adapting to the rapidly changing environment. "
