How can I help? My 2.5 yo has reached a quite nervous stage
he is currently having a meltdown in parks (only tried our local 2) I know to keep exposing him. I’m unsure what happened as he’s always loved the park , however he’s been terrified of dogs out and about lately (again u sure why as we have a dog and none have ran at him or anything while out) so he was saying “no dogs no dogs” so I think he’s associated the park with the dogs?
he was happy as walking around the perimeter of the park by the busy roads ! I made sure we held tight hands
but how can I help? He loved the park I don’t want him to hate it now :(
he seriously had a 25 minute meltdown until I got him to an exit to walk around it ! He used to love going around we’d go every week , (he goes to nursery 3 days, I have 2 alone with him we’d go on these days and weekends were for bigger days out!)
