When I went to pick ds up from nursery he was crying at the door when I arrived, very distressed and saying that he wanted me, that he wanted to go home (even though he hadn't seen me yet at this point). His key worker explained that he'd been told off for snatching a toy and was put in time out, and "obviously they have to ignore him now" (her words).
This has made me feel quite uncomfortable. Is this normal? Ds is 2 and 3 months. I would absolutely want them to correct his bad behaviour, but I was thinking more along the lines of explaining why the behaviour was bad, getting him to apologise to the other child and then redirecting him to play elsewhere, rather than ignoring a distressed 2 year old. I'm going to ask the nursery for their discipline policy next time we're in, so at least we'll be on the same page from now on, but I'm just wondering AIBU to be upset about this or maybe I am being too sensitive?
