[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hard "NO!!!!" to everyone suggesting that you tell your mom she can watch the kid if it upsets her. That encourages and empowers her to get all up in your sh*t. She doesn't get a vote. She needs to be supportive or STFU. If you don't want her being passive aggressive then don't do it yourself. Be direct and set boundaries.

As for the kid, you and kid will be fine. Change is sometimes hard for little ones (and moms). Kid will cry until kid stops crying. Also, and I don't mean to be critical but rather constructive, based on your post you are contributing to the kid's issues. They need to feel supported and like this PK3 change is positive. Your concern and second guessing is most surely being observed and internalized by the kid. You need to learn to fake it. Not suggesting you dismiss your kid's concerns but you need to do what's best for them even if what is best scares them.

In short order this will all pass. Hang in.   [/quote]

ummm no, her mom is right. this is a long day for a 3 year old, and that is why he is struggling. kids adapt (sometimes) but plenty of parents don’t want to force their 3 year old to adapt to that. I knew plenty of sane parents who didn’t do aftercare because it was too much (even for older kids.) [/quote]
