[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 370271, member: 1991"] Shari, sounds like Wee's reaction to going away from home is similar to difficult child 3's - at some level, he believes he has permanently left his old nome and is somehow in transit. Once we realised this was what was happening with difficult child 3, we began to understand why he could get so anxious if the family members explored in different directions while on holiday; he was scared he might never see the person again, just as he was convinced we would never be going back home again. Once we worked out this was happening, we were able to work with him and say, "Two more days and you will be back home in your old bed with your old toys, plus the new one we bought today for you." And when we got back home we reminded him we had spoken the truth, we had arrived back home as we had promised. difficult child 3 is now a much more relaxed traveller. Marg [/QUOTE]
