Okay, so last week my son had Strep throat and was kept home for a few days from day care/preschool. That led into the weekend where there was a lot of family time with visiting the grandparents. So, when Monday came, and it was time for me to leave him at day care he is back into crying himself into a frenzy when I start to leave...pulling on me to get me to stay and just not being himself. Now there are a number of changes such as a new teacher and room changes at day care. But, he knows everyone. I stick around day care for about 20 minutes every morning before going to work across the street (he knows I'm very close). But, I was thinking of stopping the 20 minute visit if he doesn't stop the problem. But, once I rethought that idea, I thought that maybe it would do more harm than good. He's already thinking I'm abandoning him, so should I keep sticking around, and hope the issue goes away, or should I give him a dose of "cold turkey"? I really don't want to see him upset.
