This is basically a desperate plea for any help, support and really just to let it all out!
My dd (4) has struggled with going back to school since the Christmas holidays. It's now got the point where she is extremely stressed in the morning. She refuses to eat or drink in the morning, won't get dressed or brush her teeth.
She cries and pleads with to let her stay at home as she hates school.
Yesterday I literally had to drag her through the playground.
I ended up going into school this morning to ask for help on what I should do and I was told to bring her in in her pj's, simple as that.
How am I supposed to force her to eat or pin her down to dress her? She is only 4 and it's really wearing me down now.
The teacher says she's happy at school but lacks confidence. My daughter doesn't seem to like the teacher though and comes up with so many excuses why she doesn't want to go.
Any thoughts on what to do?
