DS nursery teacher is coming for a home visit this pm. He's a lovely man and teaches at the same school as a close friend of ours - so knows us in and out of school to some extent. DS is 3.4 and adopted at 18 months.
While un-keen on being left, DS has apparently had a very good time during the first couple of weeks of nursery school (he's doing 3 mornings a week), and seemed happy when we returned after absences of up to 1 hour. However, yesterday when Daddy left him for the full session he clearly wasn't happy, and the staff picked up that he was very quiet and withdrawn. We know this is something of a danger signal as he was abnormally withdrawn when he came into foster care as a young baby - when he's finding things hard the response is usually to close down.
I'm not sure what, or how much, to say to the nursery teacher. They are very open about parents staying if they want to, though most don't. Will he think I'm making a big deal of one bad day if I say I am concerned about how DS is settling, and ask his advice?
