Ds is a September baby so nearly all his peer group at nursery have now left to start school in September (he won't be going for another year). There have been a string of 'last days' for all the children he knows and plays with - and leaving parties - and a big influx of younger children who all know each other from the baby rooms. Ds is suddenly behaving quite badly atm at nursery - eg not doing as he is told - which is how (I think) he expresses anger. I think he's feeling angry at all the changes and feels isolated with so many familiar faces gone and so many new children who have established friendships and aren't open to playing with him. He told me he felt cross at nursery and doesn't like it that people are all leaving.
He has a few problems socially because of his dyspraxia anyway and I think this isn't helping. Have any of you experienced similar and did anything except time help?
