This is being posted because I am so pleased, but also to help all those mums of 'difficult' children.
Ds is wonderful but has always had difficult traits to deal with. He would bit other children, run away at a seconds notice, and would only do what he wanted , with anger if you isisted that he do something he didn't want to.
He went to a wonderful nursery and they were honest with me that they were a little worried at how well he would cope with reception, with more organised play.
I saw one of his old teachers today and she told me how astonised she has been when she saw him in school today. She said that he was hardly recognisable as the little boy she had known in nursery.
His teacher told me that he sat and listened to a wildlife expoert for almost an hour this afternoon! And this the little boy would would never sit down.
The school have been wonderful about letting him take part a little at a time and have supported him a great deal.
So I am just posting to say how proud I am of my little boy and also to say that there can be light at the end of the tunnel for all the mums of 'biters' and 'figiters'
