He's just 4.
He tries, fails, gives up and cries. He can get undressed but getting dressed seems hopeless! I am trying to keep encouraging him but sometimes now he cries before we've even attempted it.
I don't want it to become some huge bone of contention so I'm treading quite gently.
He's ok with other things, going to toilet, listening, putting hand up, finding own name and following instructions.
If it wasn't for the getting dressed thing I wouldn't be too concerned about him. Some of my friend's children who are 6 or 7 months older have only just started to dress themselves. I think ds will be able to do it in a few months time but he will be one of the younger ones when he starts school.
Should I be worried? All I can do is keep practicing really isn't it?

How bad is it that ds can't dress himself and is starting school?
