Is it normal for a 3 year old to dislike certain people/children? When i take him to nursery, most of the other children play with each other or by themselves and they don't seem to be bothered with others being around them. Except for 2 children and 2 members of staff, he tells me he doesn't like anyone else! He also tells me he doesn't like my father and doesn't like my partners mother. is this normal?!
