My son is in kindergarten, Its been a month that school started He enjoyed his first week of class than from second week he started crying it is not stopped till now. Morning he will be so sad he wont talk much I drop him to school There also like he wont be happy but he will be ok. After we come home at 3:00 then from evening he will start crying that don't send me to school and its not fun place and all. I tried to ask him what is the problem he will tell that in school they make him to work a lot. But what I see its like the same thing what he used to do in his preschool (He went to preschool for all 5 days and from 8 to 3:00), he take little bit more time to finish his work but he finishes and it will be neat for his age. I tried to cheer him up by telling all the good things but he is not accepting. I tried to bribe him , spank him nothing his working. Please help me.
Have you talked to his teacher yet. Maybe you could talk to her and see if there is something going on during the day that is really upsetting him. Other than trying to talk to him about how important school is, I don't have much advice.
If he isn't crying during school, maybe he just wants to stay home and doesn't understand why you make him go to school all day. I hope you can figure out what's going on so you can help him get past this.
Welcome Sowmya. I agree with Stacey, to set up a parent teacher conference and make sure that nothing is happening during school. Have her really watch during recess to make sure there isn't a young bully out there. If you have time, pop in and observe the class one day. (unannounced of course). Kindergarten is a little different than preschool..more structured and more work. He may not be used to that. He may be shy at school and afraid to make friends, making it lonely while he is there. Keep reassuring him that school is his job and that he has to go, but that if anything is happening he needs to let you know. Keep all lines of communication open. Punishing him at this point may not be the answer because it will make him wary of telling of things in fear of getting in trouble, kwim?
