Hi

I need some advice on what to do with my 4 year old. They go to nursery twice a week for a full day while we are at work and every nursery morning they wake up and immediately go in to meltdown as soon as they realize they are going to nursery. Then cue tears, tantrums etc. Nothing has happened at nursery and they say after about 5 mins he is fine and the model child when there.
I have tried the soft approach and the hard approach but nothing works. My husbands always seems to take on a more aggressive approach which I hate and then I know its wrong but we always end up having an argument. In turn all three of us are then leaving the house with everyone upset and angry.
For a while now my son has became very clingy, he wont go anywhere without us, he used to stay with my parents and my brother if on the rare occasion we needed a babysitter but now again kicks off if we dare try to leave him. I don't know how he has ended up so insecure. He is a very much loved and probably which I know again is my fault but spoiled child in every other way.

Any advice will be very much appreciated! Thank you.

When I say he is spoiled I don't mean in a brat sort of way getting everything he wants etc just mean more with love and attention.
