You stopped going to preschool and…started again

You never went to preschool easily; you always cried in the morning.

Three weeks ago, crying became even worse, to a level that we decided to cancel your preschool.

We thought of three reasons: 1- you were really missing us, and didn’t feel comfortable on your own. 2- you were not comfortable around bigger boys, and 3- you could not keep pace with bigger kids to do school work, like tracing.

Your teachers said the reason is most likely the fact that you didn’t want to be disciplined.

Then I took you to your dance lesson, where you were the biggest kid, all students are girls, you follow dance moves really well, and I sit in the room next to your class.

First you were refusing to eat breakfast in the morning, hoping that we would stay at home. Then you started crying in the middle of the class. Your teacher wanted to send you out of the class, and I asked her to keep you there. You stayed there, but sat by the wall, and kept on crying for 20 minutes outloud.

At that point, I just realized that you just want to stay at home doing nothing, and that most likely you didn’t have any serious issues at preschool.

I asked for advise from three psychologists, one in the US (Patrice Wolters), one in Canada (Sara Dimmerman), and one in Iran (my mom’s close friend, also an experienced psychologist, Ezzat Simhai), and they all agreed that you are crying to get out of school.

So, I am now putting you back in school.

Your crying and begging to stay at home breaks my heart. I feel terrible and awful. But hey, you have been at this same school, with the same teachers and students for three months before we went on vacation, and after we came back, you started crying. So,  it really seems some sort of manipulation to stay at home.

And, you are nonetheless the most gorgeous and adorable girl I have ever seen. Everybody loves you, and your smart beautiful eyes.
