My 4 1/2 year old has been displaying a lot of insecurity since his childminder moved far away just before Christmas. Unfortunately they lived about 6 doors down and her son was/is also my son's best friend. He's difficult on and off at home, but it's particularly bad in the mornings when I leave him at school. He cries and gets very upset - "I want to stay with YOU, mummy". He seems to be ok once at school.
I've been talking to him more about the childminder and son, and am trying to arrange to skype so they can see each other. DOes anyone have any other suggestions about how to help him?
thanks
