As much as possible ignore such reactions.
Thank-you. That is helpful advice.
What about the child throwing tantrums about wanting to live with the other parent any time cosequences for unacceptable behavior occur? At home and at school.
It is not at all unusual for young children to display sadness in the wake of such contact. It' s important that you convey to your child an understanding, supportive, uncritical stance. Your child is entitled to his/her feelings. try to arrange things in a way that minimizes demands in the immediate aftermath of contact, so that your chikld has 'permission' to experiencve the sadness at separation from his/her other parent.
