My 4 yr old started prek, having severe separation anxiety/crying a lot. anything we can do or just part of growing up?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Separation anxiety: Best approach is to take him to front door of school, have teacher come out to take him in, and comment that you will pick him up after school for a treat. Once he is inside with other kids, he should be fine. Ofcourse, you have to tolerate separating from him. After a while, it gets better.
