[quote=Anonymous]My kid is almost 14 now but I still remember those young years. For us, every transition took 3-4 weeks. (They felt like VERY LONG weeks at the time.) And then, like someone said above, it's like a switch flipped. There is also a collective phenomenon where all of the kids are facing this transition at the same time, so it's a whole classroom of unsettled 3 year olds. The teachers have seen this before and my guess is, if they are really concerned that your kid is unusually distressed, they will see it and will tell you. You are NOT doing anything wrong. You're a great parent! Every kid is different and this one will find his rhythm. And if he doesn't find it right now and you end up deciding to change your situation this year, that is okay too. It doesn't mean that you made a bad decision to send him to school. But give it some time first. And be gentle with yourself too.[/quote]
