[quote=Anonymous]My son, 2.5, started preschool + aftercare in early September for the first time, after being cared for at home during the day by a nanny for his first years (my spouse and I both work full time). He started off fine (if a little hesitant), then got the flu recently and was out for almost 2 weeks. Going back has been a struggle - the first week back, he was crying at drop off and during the day, that has since improved but he is disappointed when it’s a school day and is still just not quite his usual happy self. He gets upset about things he didn’t before, and just seems sad sometimes. I guess my question is - is it normal to take a couple months to adjust to the school experience? Is he just going though a stormy period of development? Or is this unusual/a bad school fit? I like his school and teachers and he has never reported anything negative happening.[/quote]
