[quote=Anonymous]This was my son in preschool.  He didn't act like that at home.  He had a lot of sensory problems that manifested in very defensive behavior (biting, hitting, pinching, pushing, etc).  Any loud noises, people touching him unexpectedly, overwhelming stimuli and he would react badly.  He was asked to leave one preschool and was on his way to being asked to leave another one.  Thankfully, I didn't need preschool for daycare.  I don't know what I would've done had I needed group daycare b/c I couldn't afford a nanny/babysitter.  Years later, he was diagnosed with ADHD and still overreacts to certain stimuli when he isn't on medication.  Some kids just cannot stand being around groups of kids all day everyday.  It is too much.  Don't always blame the parents for the way a child acts.  My son's preschool director (at the last preschool) was a friend of mine.  She saw firsthand how he acted at home and I was thankful that she recommended he be tested by an OT.  I didn't have the money for him to go to OT more than a few sessions but the evaluator was very clear in her findings.  The louder and more chaotic the environment, the more my son would "act out."  I saw it myself at places that were loud and crowded (Chuck E. Cheese was the worst!).[/quote]
