After Daycare Meltdown

Another article mommy is reading "After Daycare Meltdown", good tips about the cold shoulder reaction - or the screaming tantrum reaction ... it's common after a separation. It's good Bernice doesn't has it yet...just after the 1st day of school, she screamed in the car without any reason and just yelled out loud. The article says it might be stress in her day that she can't express or maybe just tired, or it's their way for releasing tension (as they don't know yoga yet!)

Solutions to this is:
• Try to arrange pickup at the same time each day, so they can get used to the idea that you'll be arriving soon and your caregiver can make sure not to have just started a fascinating new activity as you arrive.
• Have a snack handy for both of you for the trip home. Low blood sugar can make everyone grumpy before dinner gets to the table.
