How do I grow another skin where my DS is concerned??? I feel stupid for being such a worrier when there are people out there with real things to worry about....but I seem to be missing a layer of skin and every little problem for my Ds sends me into a spin!
I saw my DS being pushed in the playground at pre-school today by a boy he usually plays with - nothing really rough, just a push and "Go away I don't want to play with you"....
DS had told me about another boy spitting at him over the last couple of weeks, and as he was really anxious today, I told him I'd tell his teachers, which I did; the staff member said that my DS can be very shouty with the other children, and this particular boy 'won't take it' though she did say she would keep an eye on him today.
And the thing is I know this is very mild stuff and just how children are, and I have to let my DS experience all this so that he can be ready to make friends in the future. I think it's all heightened for me because he will start school in September at only just four (his birthday is in August) and tbh I am not convinced he is ready......
Is someone going to tell me to get over myself?? or any other suggestions???
