Common Questions and Answers about Anxious kindergartener

anxiety

Avatar n tn First of all, about language- it is best for the child to continue speaking the native language at home. I am a certified ESL teacher and that is what we are taught and encouraged to tell families. Children need to learn a language fully and it is best that it is the language that the family speaks. The skills acquired in the native language transfer easily to the second language (English).
Avatar f tn No you are not alone!!!!! I get sad (I secretly get worried and sometimes think of what "could" happen), I also call my 2nd grader and kindergartener my babies!!! I have 5 children (gave birth via cesarean to 6, had one pass away) at home. But I still feel empty without my older boys!!! I am expecting our 7th, I am emotional about them going to school even when I am not pregnant. It's our motherly instinct!!! It's okay, we gotta be big girls, right!?
Avatar f tn I make meals and freeze them.
Avatar n tn Are there other issues as no speaking or little social interaction? How is her behaviour at home? at other social events? Are there tantrums and frustration episodes, especially after returning from school? Does she go to bed easily at night and rise in the morning without major incidents?
Avatar n tn I am lucky enough to have a very understanding teacher for my kindergartener. She understands that these kids are going crazy being still all day. Remember your boy is very young and is really too young to be good all day long in a situation like that.
Avatar f tn My kindergartener is extremely stubborn and has temper tantrums when she does not get her way. This is hindering her in school and disrupting her class and classes around her as she screams loudly when something does not go her way. We have tried rewarding her good behavior and taking something away when she has tantrums but so far, nothing seems to faze her. Please help as we (including her teacher) are at wits end.
Avatar m tn Holy smokes! That’s ridiculous! A kindergartener? With no history of any other misconduct? This is beyond extreme in my opinion. I am an elementary school teacher and a mother of a kindergartener. Kids say a whoooooooole lot that is shocking, inappropriate, alarming etc.... while I do believe it should be addressed, referring to a child as a sexually harassing someone at 5 years old is ridiculous!
Avatar n tn it is difficult to believe that in this day and age of no tolerance that a threat like that isnt taken more seriously by the school. When a kindergartener can be suspended for making a paper handgun and running around with friends on the playground pretending to shoot, yet a threat of killing someone's family is ignored? Your sister should have pushed the issue if it bothered her that much to pull her daughter out of school. She would have won.
Avatar f tn Also, I wanted to ask you how I would go about finding a surgeon who is the best in a specific area- in this case, maybe skin grafting, or whtever you would call making my areoles/nipples NOT look like a kindergartener put them on- I have a feeling that I will be seeking someone to fix this, very soon. thanks!
394995 tn?1276085035 I like using both as names. I voted for Lance, just because the only one I've known has been super intelligent and social...but I like Griffin too. Griff would be cute, but I can't imagine a little 5 year old kindergartener with that name. :P That's just me though.
Avatar f tn I am guessing that your child will indeed qualify for services because his academic performance is behind and he is being compared to a kindergartener. Usually academic performance is the important factor to an IEP. If the work is hard, perhaps extra help will get him up to speed. I have a dear friend whose kindergarten age son was having trouble with various academic things. She hired a tutor and he is now doing great. so, be open to extra help. good luck!
Avatar f tn Im due August 8th with my fourth child. I am anxious and very ready for birth. I guess im more anxious to see the baby. Congrats and good luck!!
Avatar f tn Im 11weeks and 5 days , and im not showing not even a little bit when will I start showing...im anxious to see my belly its been 7 years since I been pregnant im ready for a belly lol.
Avatar f tn I'm 22 weeks pregnant and I have been having really uneasy feelings when I'm out in public. I feel really anxious that someone is going to harm me and I won't be able to get away or protect myself like I would if I wasn't pregnant. It's gotten to the point I don't like going places alone. I know this is strange but I'm wondering if anyone else feeling this way?
Avatar f tn I'm a FIRST Time Mom.. && I'm 11wks Pregnant && I'm ANXIOUS Too Know My Babys' Sex! When Do I Find Out?????
