My dd does not come here so I said I would ask.She has two wonderful little boys[4 and 6] and both have been doing well and seeming to be happy healthy lads.Recently dgs2 who is just finishing nursery has made massive leaps in his reading readiness-blending words and spontaneously reading simple books unprompted.His teacher/TA are delighted.BUT this has coincided with a reversion to really babyish,whiny behaviour at home.He is determinedly sucking his thumb though he had almost stopped, is picking fights with his brother then crying and blaming.He has meltdowns-not full on tantrums but nearly.
On Sports Day he would not compete just wandered down the track-he refused a sticker 'for trying' because, "I didn't try"!
He used to be such a laid back little chap-what do you think could be causing the problem?
He has a little group of friends but won't play with children he doesn't know.He has been 'picked on' a bit by one of the girls in his class but doesn't seem too bothered,"I just breathe at her!" This is demonstrated with a sigh.
