I am so upset, just got back from my 6yo DS's class assembly which the parents and the rest of the school are invited to watch. All the children had 1 line each to say, my DS was very nervous and spent ages practising his line with his toy microphone last night, he seemed fine this morning though. I dropped him at the classroom and went round and took a seat in the hall. When he came in he had a tissue and was really sobbing his little heart out, I could see the teachers trying to quiet him, he carried on crying right through the performance, then as it got to his line, the teacher gave it to another child which upset him even more. I was very upset and to be honest a little angry with him, all the mums were looking at him then at me and wondering what on earth was wrong with him! All the other children seemed so confident and fine with it, why does my son act like this? He came over to me at the end and asked me when half term is, could it be a problem with the school? He has only been at the school since october and hasn't made friends really, he moved from a school where the teacher was wonderful and he had great friends, we had to change his school as we have moved due to my DP's new job. I feel guilty that this could be why he is acting this way, he used to be really happy, now he just seems down all the time, he has so much potential as he is such an intelligent little boy, but he is sooooooo sensitive. What should I do, is it normal, should I take him out of the school, should I take him to the doctors or something? I don't know what to do!
