[quote=Anonymous]Awww. I'm sorry she feels that way.

Is her backpack labeled? Does she know it? Perhaps you can buy one of those big key chain thingies you can put on so it'll be easier for her to identify it.

Lunch is stressful. My K child also says she doesn't have time to eat. Does your daughter have friends she sits with? Perhaps she's talking too much? The teachers and lunch staff stressed that the child should know how to open all the containers. Perhaps she doesn't want to ask for help?

We had a similar issue last year, but ours was later in a year.  Once we got that figured out (took about 2 wks!) it was fine.

Try to piece the entire story together on what exactly is bothering her (during driving/bedtime was the best time for us). My son told us exactly what was bothering him (someone stepped on his fingers, someone else laughed, no one said they're sorry, etc) but it was here and there and we thought we solved it right away. It was only after I retold him his version of the story with ALL the details that he said, "that's what I've been trying to tell you".

Good luck![/quote]
