Guest Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Well, after a tearful (from me) first day yesterday, we've had an explosive second morning today. Caitlin decided, as we got to her classroom, that school just wasn't the way forward, and that she'd just go home, thankyou very much. She had the most enormous screaming tantrum, complete with tears and foot stomping, and the last I saw of her, she was being carried into the classroom by one of the TA's, screaming, "I WANT MY MUMMEEEEEEEEEEE!", with a beetroot face.

Snowy Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Oh no Shona! How is she now she's home? I shouldn't have read this - middle son Daniel starts school for the first time next Thursday I'm dreading his reaction. One minute he's saying he wants to go, then he changes his mind and says he wants to stop at home. Must remember tissues (and dark glasses ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicola H Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Oh Shona it will get better..............I remember this happening with Tom he thought he only had to go for one day and had a massive tantrum when he realised he had to go every day, but once he made some friends he was fine.

My little'un starts in the school's nursery class in two weeks time which is going to feel really strange. I'll feel !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
