Just returned from a parents chat session with my nursery. Within a couple of minutes his 'teacher' or whatever you call them at such a young age said that they had concerns about my wee boy as he only enjoys playing by himself and he had a poor grasp of concentration. She then went on to bring in the woman in charge of special needs to ask me some further questions, such as does he have any friends outside of here to play with as if all I ever did with him was take him round the shops! At this point I must state that he has a lovely temperment, never agressive always smiling and I make a point seeing as though I am a stay at home mum to do something really fun with him every day whether its swimming, the animal park or the play center and yes he does play with other children absolutely fine ! They also said he hates loud noises and cant sit in the piano session anymore as he gets in such a state. His nursery is a Montessori as well, Im not sure if their method of learning means they expect more from him, to me he is stilll a baby ! I just wanted to put this out there as I was very upset when I came back and feel I really do the best for him and maybe he is just shy at nursery, surely it doesnt mean there is anything more wrong with him than that does it?
Sorry for going on xx
