Socially, kids her age are still figuring it out and some of them participate in what is called parallel play, which is when kids will play near one another, but not with one another. That might explain why her teacher says she doesn't have any problems with the other kids and seems to play with them. Also, kids that age are really jealous and want a lot of their teacher's attention, which, like you said, isn't always easy when they have to devote so much time to the kids having problems. It's probably not a big deal, but good for you for advocating for your kid, Mama!! You have to do because no one else will!Candancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08159026806364774217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5294400411834490294.post-78776969982551662022011-01-27T05:43:46.599-08:002011-01-27T05:43:46.599-08:00PS Your comment on my Blog made me laugh out loud!...PS Your comment on my Blog made me laugh out loud!Will Burkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10158149526658590324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5294400411834490294.post-75449635175647607812011-01-27T05:43:11.421-08:002011-01-27T05:43:11.421-08:00I am no where near this stage (my girl is just fig...I am no where near this stage (my girl is just figuring out how to use a spoon), but the gymnastics idea sounds great. Good call on skipping the bloopers, nothing discourages activity like an exposed shin bone! <br />Psychiatry is a young "science," with more theories than facts, but many in the field have good hearts & intentions. Child counselling is especially low-impact, and electro-shock went out of fashion long ago!Will Burkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10158149526658590324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5294400411834490294.post-28985633215325974592011-01-25T18:08:43.211-08:002011-01-25T18:08:43.211-08:00Thanks guys!

She's very happy and social but something about this class is making my little flower girl start to wilt. :( It's like I can see she feels out of place, like a person in a room full of people but still feels alone. I'd rather do something now instead of waiting to see if it "works itself out." I'm a product of that line of thinking and I can tell you I wish someone would've been there to back me up. Would've saved me a lot of trouble. But I'll update how normal she is and how overreactive I am :DJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11147164986410943832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5294400411834490294.post-15047636302811813322011-01-25T05:56:14.500-08:002011-01-25T05:56:14.500-08:00Good thing I know you are being a little tongue in...Good thing I know you are being a little tongue in cheek.<br /><br />Right?<br /><br />Because preschool is just... preschool. Not that she shouldn't know people's names, but just that it's not that uncommon at 3 or 4.<br /><br />FYI, I can't find your email to respond back on your comments on my blog.

Maybe the first year was new, exciting and this year she is more down to business. Maybe she is going to be a girl that only has a handful of truly good friends that will be with her past high school. I think gymastics is great, but I wouldn't fret over the not knowing kids names in school, my son really didn't speak of friends until after 4th grade. I am available if you ever need to just talk.Lanorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17456823484672616721noreply@blogger.com
