[QUOTE="DDD, post: 454046, member: 35"] Geez, I don't know how many times I have been the phone contact person because GFGmom arranged to be unavailable and "enjoy" her time free from the kids. It is so beyond pathetic. Sending hugs and best wishes that it goes better than expected. Although I am pessimistic about his school experience, I have known exceptions. Once in a blue moon an unprepared child just withdraws and observes. Twenty years ago I had a lovely your babysitter for easy child/difficult child for half days. She was sweet, attractive, kept an immaculate home, doted on her daughter and the kids she sat. I was totally dumbfounded however when her little girl went to K and was totally unable to adjust. She cried and cried for her Mommy. The school even let the Mom come join her for lunch and yet she still just sobbed and sobbed. It was her very first experience being separated. This beautiful and smart little girl was disenrolled and her Mom was told to get her into a play group for awhile and then transition her to a pre-K school part time so she could wean off her Mom's presence. It was one of the strangest things I've ever seen...and she was a easy child. I will be thinking of your grandson all day and sending good thoughts and prayers his way. Fingers crossed that he is quickly identified as a child in need and the school steps up to the plate pronto. Hugs. DDD [/QUOTE]
