Hi
I have a four year old started last week, so on day four.
Tuesday 9-2
We'd 9-12.30 and drop at nursery.
Basically he wants to do nothing all the time and really struggle to get him to interact. Takes him hour to eat lunch with me persuading him all the time and then just eats top bits of Sandwich and bite of what he has. So slow.
Anyway, last week he got mad at having to get shoes on and go to nursery, cried all way there and crying when I left.
Today, point blank refusal to even get shoes coat on. Managed to get them on, with a lot of persuasion. Then he sat in middle of floor and wouldn't budge. Now I have to get to nursery and back cos other child starts at 1 (now asleep), it took me thirty minutes to get him out of the door. In car cried all way to nursery. Spoke to his key worker who said mum struggles too to get him here and he won't do anything here either!
This is only until July when he goes to school. But today felt like it was hard, if I had another child in the morning, which I was planning on taking on, I would never get out the door on time.
I have left mum a polite note in the bag to explain that he refused to go and got upset.
As soon as I mentioned this morning about going to nursery he said No. He won't give a reason either for y he doesn't like it.
Any tips, do you think he will get better. Thought this would be an easy one to fill space until July when full timer starts, but not so sure now.
