My son went to daycare and then full day kindergarten at the day care since he was 2. 99% of the time he went without having any issues and seemed to really like it. Then I got laid off from my job and he was with me for six weeks at home at the beginning of the summer. When I went back to work we tried a day camp which we had to pull him out of because he was so scared, so I put him back in day care until school starts and he pleads with me to not leave him their either. It takes sometimes up to 30 minutes to get him to stop. Now when I mention school starting in a few weeks he looses it and starts crying and says he doesn't want to go. I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I don't want him to be causing a scene at school. He says he won't take the bus and wants me to drive him, but I'm certain I'll just have the problem at school instead of the bus stop. I don't know if I should keep talking about school, and reinforcing what a great place it is, or if I should just drop it and hope for the best in 4 weeks. Whenever I bring it up his mood changes immediately and he starts to cry. But, if I don't figure this out now, I think I may be going through this when school starts. Normally, I have a very happy child, likes to play, likes his friends etc. Thank you. Cary
