As title says really lo starts school in September and is struggling to do a lot of things still, should we be worried?
She has speech issues so know this will hold her back a bit. She is under a speech therapist for this though.
I wasnt too worried though as the only thing that nursery have said need addressing are her coodination and concentration which they and us (parents) are working on. So I wasnt too worried but now I have well wishing relatives saying she should be doing more drawings, shapes, colours, dressing herself etc.
Of course we encourage all of the things we feel she needs for school but dont want to push too much as she is at nursery 5 mornings a week and dont want to overpower her, besides when I try to do a lot of it at home she isnt interested. SHe does enjoy trying to get dressed and undressed and helps with this every day keenly.
SO I guess my question is should we be worried or just ignore well wishing relatives. (one even telling me she may need to go to a special school for a while, no problem with this is she does just not something I had even thought about as nursery never said anything on those lines) Just worried now she wont be able to cope when she starts school!!
