[quote=Anonymous]My 4 year old is exactly the same. Does great when I am not around, but if I am, she literally does not leave my side, and if I need her to it's lots of tears and drama. She has been this way since birth, but I hoped it would be better by now. But, I try to give her chances to be on her own so she can learn to be a bit more independent. If I were in your shoes OP, I would not go on the field trip since you know your child thrives more when you aren't around. I know that's not what you want, but it's probably for the best to give him extra opportunity to be on his own without you. From what I hear, only time makes clingy kids better. I was like this as a child too and grew out of it around 7 or 8 according to my mom.[/quote]
