[quote=Anonymous]My charge is 15 months and does the same thing with me when her father comes home. It's not about attachment. it's more about transition. The child is losing his "playmate" and has recently become aware of it. What you need to do is maintain a consistent goodbye routine that includes a distraction. Food as always worked for me. I make sure her afternoon snack is right as i'm leaving. I give her snack say goodbye. If she gets upset and the food doesn't work i tell the parents to blow bubbles. She completely forgets about me after a few minutes and has come to associate her parents with food and play time.[/quote]
