DS has been going to nursery since 6 months old for 3 days a week. He's now 2.5. Obviously in this time we've had a variety of phases but for a long time now he's been very content going.
In the past month or so he has started to battle us about going...not wanting breakfast, to get dressed etc. When we arrive he's fine but then gets upset when I/DP leaves him. Of course the staff say it passes in minutes after we've gone and when we come to pick him up he is happy to stay longer and isn't upset.
Is this a common phase at his age or should I be reading more in to the situation? I hung around this morning but didn't draw any conclusions. I just wanted the staff to know that I am concerned and that I want to know if he's upset. He changed rooms a few weeks ago but knows the children in the new room. I'm paranoid that it's the staff in that new room that have changed his feelings but maybe I'm analysing this all too much AGAIN! He's a really sociable child and loves his friends at nursery.
