[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child just started K last week. And he is terrified of the cafeteria. To the point where he is crying each morning before school. Not wanting to go at all. I got a call from school that they had to remove him from the lunch room bc he was crying and could not calm down. They have tried setting a table up that is smaller and more removed. Anyone have any other ideas that I can ask for? He is terrified. I'm not sure if this is a sensory issue or what. But, if it helps, we asked for, and were denied, an aide for lunch and recess. Now he is distraught at lunch, was not able to even participate in recess once last week bc he was so upset. Now... this AM, we had major tears about even going to school at all. Any ideas on what we need to do? Do we ride this out hoping he will acclimate?[/quote] He needs to be allowed to take his tray to the resource room or the school office to eat. Maybe ear plugs in the meantime?[/quote]
