I have spoke with him privately, and he is fine just going thru what the dr said, I just needed reassurance. I asked my doctor as well and he said this happens a lot at this age. Thank u, and I'm sorry for ur situation! God Bless
I would also talk with him privately...asking him why he doesn't like to be left alone at his Nana's house. I don't want to scare you, but there could be something else going on. As a child my mom left me with my grandpa a lot. I used to love going there, til he started touching me. I was afraid to tell my mom...so she assumed I was just having separation anxiety. Kids assume their parents would never believe them. Sadly, they are right. I still never told my mom, because I KNOW she would never believe me. This happened when I was 8. I am 25 now. People are not the way you think, so don't ever say "I know them & they would never do that". My mom and her dad were close. Him and I were close too, til he decided to take things further.
thank you :) I suppose this is just a phase? right? I just want to make the right decision!! Any tips on how I can help talk to him about it?
All you can do is be patient and supportive. There is no need to feel guilty. Guilt is a feeling we have when we have done something wrong. You are not doing anything wrong. It's OK if he cries when you leave him at his pre-school. Just hand him over to the teachers and leave. Don't hesitate or dawdle - that will only make things worse. Once you are gone he will settle and be fine. This would not be unusual at all for a young child.
