[quote=Anonymous]As others have said, this is pretty par for the course with children this age. The other child may simply have a different temperament than your child, which is why he doesn't react as strongly. But I do agree that often parents, whether consciously or not, encourage the behavior. I had one mom that would almost force her daughter to cry when she left in order to feed her need to know her child missed her. You need to make transitions as quick and matter of fact as possible, while also giving warning that the transition is coming. Before dropoff let DC know he's going to have lots fun with nanny while mommy goes to work. Repeat this as you do the handover. One hug and kiss, and out the door. Ask nanny to send you a picture once he calms down to reassure you that he's okay. Have her prepare him in the same way in the evening. A few days of this routine and he will get it. [/quote]
