The parent may not understand why her child has anxiety. If there is a counselor at the school, I would refer the student to them. If anxiety affects her school attendance then she needs help.

Have a heart to heart conversation to show you both care for the student and want them to be in the best situation possible. I would work with your school counselor on ideas on how to support this student. Perhaps this means setting up your classroom differently or offering your classroom as a safe place during lunch hours.
