... and I have no idea why. .
He loves school, loves learning to read, comes home wanting to practice his reading, his writing, has always been very enthusiastic about what's going on. And then suddenly last week he cried on Monday morning when going to school and it was like someone flicked a switch because he has cried every morning ever since.
I do not pander to it. I don't stay - I just walk away, and teacher tells me that once he's settled he's fine, and that she has no idea why he's doing it.
I've tried talking to him and asked if anyone has been horrible to him and he says no. I asked why he cries and he just said he doesn't know.
I've tried insentives, saying we can get sweets after school, we put a list on the fridge of things he can tick to do at the weekend, can tick one thing every day if he doesn't cry but nothing has helped.
In the past he was ve attached, cried when first went to preschool/nursery but with school it was different - he ran in without so much as a backward glance and has loved going ever since so I am at a loss.
He says he likes it at school, nothing has changed at home, so I really don't know what to do any more.
