  Case: Why are you crying, Mommy will be back
There's a kindergartener that crys every morning whenever the student's mother drops them off. After about 10 minutes the student stops crying and is fine, but this does get annoying when this happens every morning. Is this something where the student is just young and needs to grow up a little or is this something where I need to have a meeting with the parents about? When asked, all the student says is that they miss mommy. Obviously the mother can't sit by the student's side all the time. What should be done?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Kindergarteners are still at an age in which they have separation anxiety, especially from their parents or closest loved ones. My suggestion would be to allow the student to carry a picture of mom with them to class, this way they may feel as though a part of mom is still with them once the parent is physically away.
