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!)
We had a student in my first internship that did this. We would welcome the student in the morning and try to engage them right away with a movie that we would play until the last bell rang. This seemed to be a good distraction for the student. I would maybe try to find something that the student is really interested in and as soon as they enter your class try to get them interested in it. You may even want to read or play a funny or catchy story for the whole class as a distraction. |

Comments: This is a great idea. Getting the student engaged in something right away, whether it be a movie or a special job, will definitely keep their mind off of mommy. Once the student is distracted initially, the likeliness of them becoming upset again is unlikely. |

Comments: I think finding a distraction is a good solution to take their mind off their mom in that moment. |
