[quote=Anonymous]Everyone is forgetting that the kids in preschool now were born during COVID and many likely did not have the typical infant/toddler experience, especially since the children’s vaccine didn’t come out until they were a few years old and many daycares were folding and didn’t have spots or weren’t opening and many families were podding up, child care was hard to come by, and continues to be because the teachers now are on the whole largely new to the field. Those who were in care had masked caregivers. The early childhood game is completely different now and the young kids coming up faced a lot of challenges - so some random middle
School mom of neurotypicals weighing in with her hot takes on preschool kids with special needs who didn’t live through COVID with a baby and hasn’t changed a diaper in over a decade needs to see herself out of this conversation. Your experience is not relevant or welcome here. Child care has been decimated by COVID and teachers are brand new and have no experience with what is normal for toilet training. My son’s preschool teachers thought all the older twos could wipe (ha!) or change their own pull-ups themselves and put on shoes and pants correctly without oversight or guidance (ha!). Many kids train fully by 3 but many train earlier or later. Forcing readiness on a child who is not ready is developmentally inappropriate. Some kids just take longer.
