10 year old sleeps with mom and now not going to school, is that healthy??

ok, This boy is 10 alomost 11 years old and he always shared the room and bed with his mom. They have another room so it isn't like he has to. After the school year started he started skipping school and now after 148 days of school his mom has let him stay home 98 days, and he hasn't been sick much at all. Is that healthy? What should I do, or should I do or say anything?

Yes you should say something , I am sure the school has already contacting child services if your child is gone more than 9 days a semester you can actually get fined for truency and social services will get involved if there is not a medical reason. Do you know if the child is on any kind of medication?

There is no reason for an almost 11yo boy to still be sharing a bed with his mum. He has missed quite alot of school, are there any issues going on at home? what relation are you to the family? If your a family member you might be able to approach them? if not, they may think your trying to tell them what to do.
