- 1 parent stating their child is anxious in large groups therefore she (the mother) is staying for the class. May I add, she didn't ask. She told. When told she can stay about half way and then go, the response back was "We'll see". This parent is also a child psychologist.
- 2 children crying for over 40minutes. This resulted in being sent home.
- 1 parent indirectly blaming me as to why their child 'freaks out' everytime they come here and insisting "SOMETHING MUST HAVE HAPPENED" over and over again. This same child ended up crying throughout the whole class, even though the nanny stayed. And even though she stayed, she didn't make him join in any aspect of the routine. What was the point of her being there then? Your guess is as good as mine.
- 1 child cried as his mother tells him "So, Mommy is not allowed to stay at preschool" and bursting into tears. 30 seconds later - his mother tells me he's crying because he's had a cold and he's not over it. She took him within five minutes of being at the school.
- 1 child JUST diagnosed with Autism. I don't need to say anymore.
- Circle time consisting of crying from three more children because they saw the other two.
- Any opportunity for lining up, resulted in several domino effects.
- Snot, boogers, snot, boogers, snot, snot, snot, boogers.
- Me - losing my marbles.
- My teacher assistant - also losing her marbles
- Our parent volunteer that day - deep breathing and big swags of coffee for the first hour.
This class is back tomorrow morning. Two hours have never felt so long. I doubt tomorrow is going to be any better. Sigh.
