i'm still single, but my big sis have a baby 3 year old. she always crying when she meet someone that she didn't know, so my sister didn't send her to kindergarten and let my mother to take her everyday when my sister going to work. when i have my free time, i bring her to mall or traditional market, i think this is help her to face people and do not afraid again.

i dont have any children , but i get a sister in my house , who is just 5 years old . she is just like your children ,it seems that her favourite hobby is crying , she just crying almost very few hours. like , who take her toy away ,who makes her feel hurt by accident, even you eat something her like , she will burst out crying. sometimes it makes people feel really boring, but i think its the nature of children,maybe they will not like this witn the growing of the age.

Ohhh, that is bad and really annoying. I understand how you feel. But you know what? I am a mother of two kids also but i never experienced the way you do. YEs my kids crying also but not much. They cry also for a reason. Like they want to eat, they are sleepy and if they are hurt. But most of the time, they like to play and watch television. They love to go to school also and have a lot of friends and fun at school. So i dont have problem like you. I hope you can find the reason why they are like that. Because it really ruined your day and if you have work i am sure, you are not going to have a peace of mind then because of their attitude...

My son is not very fussy. But there is time when he would cry his lung out especially when he found his favorite lorry and want someone to buy it for him. Most of the time he was a good boy.

when my kids were in their kindergarten years, they never cried but some of their classmates do. my kids' teachers also told me that there are other kids, who have their nannies in the classroom til the 2nd month of schooling coz the kids do cry whenever they dont see their nannies. the kids just need adjustments and there will always be kids who would need a lot of time to adjust.

My son was like your child and cried everyday until I found the solution (for us). Firstly I figured out what his problem was, he thought that I would forget about him throughout the day, so I put a sticker on his shirt pocket and one on my t-shirt - over our hearts I told him - and then I told him that when he thought of me he could touch his sticker and when I thought about him I would touch mine and he was happier going to school from then on knowing that I still loved him and thought of him over the day. As each day passed the crying improved and he went to school happy in the end.

My daughter is 5. She tends to be an emotional child. There are times it seems like her crying is a daily thing. She doesn't cry about going to school though. I just tell her crying is communicating and if she has a problem to talk. Not cry. Crying won't help. Another point my hubby and I tell her is, if you are not hurt, bleeding, or sad...don't cry. Most of the time this helps.

well, maybe your crying kid is just too young to go to school. i don't have children yet. but i have two nieces and one nephew. my first nieces is 6 years old, and she is in primary school. in the early days she went to kindergarten, two years ago, she used to cry also and didn't let her mother go home and leave her. she even come out for her mother during the class, and her mother had to sit in the class accompanying her. but it would ends after some weeks she studying there.

My brother cried the first time he went to his preschool. I think it's due to the new environment but we have "simulated" him a few weeks before that first day in school when we toured him to school- explored the classroom and met his teachers. I think it's but natural because this new environment is thought to be strange and your kid might be missing being with you, the family. I think you should develop a different strategy because your kid appears to be controlling the situation. You should present your kid two choices to divert his attention.

He will outgrow it. It is probably just a stage for him. My daughter did that too although for not as long. And actually kindergarten was fine, it was 1st grade where she decided to do this same thing. She outgrew in after the first month. Maybe your boy will take just a little longer.
