[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 414617, member: 1514"] My granddaughter is in a 4 year old dance class. I normally stay in the class because it is the only room that is actually either heated or air conditioned in the building. The waiting room for parents is not so most of the rest of the year it is hot or cold. I have a problem regulating my temperature so the teacher allowed me to sit in a corner in the room. After about one class they got used to me sitting in the back reading a book. Now if more than I was in there the kids went to heck. I think it was because my granddaughter didnt pay me any attention and the other kids couldnt stay away from their moms. If their mothers were in the room, they were up and down, going over to mommy, always wanting mom to fix something on their outfits or their shoes...something. Mine never even looked at me until class was over. I might as well have been furniture. Some 4 year olds just act out worse when parents are around. I have seen it. I would let him go in and take the class alone and see how he does. Most teachers can actually handle the kids better without parents in the room. I know my dance teacher is really strict and takes no nonsense but the girls love her. [/QUOTE]
