It was my dd's first day back to school today - starting year R.
She was very excited about going. It came to brekfast and she started moaning that she didn't want to eat it. I told her she had to eat something before school - got cross with her messing about and forced her to eat some. 2 mins later she was sick.
Anyway, she seemed OK - no temp or anything, so I took her into school and explained the situation to her teacher and said to call me if she was unwell.
She stayed at school all day - ate her lunch and came out with a beaming smile and lots of news about her first day back.
She had a snack after school and a small sleep.
At tea time she maoned and said she felt sick and didn't want her tea. I told her she had to go to bed if she was unwell and if she doesn't eat her breakfast she can't go to school.
I'm in two minds about what to do. I don't want her to get the message she can easily get a day off school but I'm not sure why she wouldn't eat her tea. She's not the best eater and I'm worried this may be the start of something. When she is sick it takes her a while to get the courage to eat anything again.
Any ideas?? Is it just a ploy to avoid her dinner??????
