I have been really upset about an incident this week at DS's nursery - DS is 3 this Saturday.
Monday was the first day back and one of the other children had a birthday party so all the children get goody bags. Because DS would not tell the group what presents he had got for christmas the nursery owner withheld his goody bag as a punishment for not joining in. On returning home I also find that whist he is normally very good at going to the toilet, sometime during the day he has wet himself and has not been able to tell anyone either through fear, embarrassment....... His socks, undies etc had started to dry so it was obvious that he had been wet for some considerable time.
The punishment was explained to me as I collected him and I was pretty angry at the time, it wasn't until I got home and reflected on the situation that I really got mad and the following morning had a bit of a set to with the owner - I told her that the issue of not joining was a development rather than a punishment issue and that DS being wet was completely unacceptable. I got a bit upset because I was so angry - isn't it infuriating when that happens!
Anyway sorry for long posting but wondered it I had overreacted
