We tried to drop him off at Sunday school this year and he just screamed and screamed for me. Needless to say he spends Sunday school hour with Mommy while we wait for his siblings. I'm also hoping its a phase and will get easier. My other kids didn't do this.Jodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04647462919777973435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6898922762803193029.post-24284788938997932562013-10-17T20:45:09.117-05:002013-10-17T20:45:09.117-05:00My 3 year old son is also very attached right now....My 3 year old son is also very attached right now.

My Little ...I can totally feel for you on this one. My Little Man will soon be three. Each day when I drop him off at school (or daycare, school makes me feel better), I never know what to expect. He may walk right in, immediately get distracted and drop off is a piece of cake. Other days, most days lately, his teacher has to peel him off of me and I have to walk away. And that's what I do. I walk away, totally. I used to stand outside the room to wait for his cries to subside but I don't do that anymore, it's too hard. Thing is though, they always say he is done crying by the time I get in my car. And I believe them....<br /><br />The other recent incident came last week. He is just now starting to sit in children's church. Last week, (which would have been week 2), he had a meltdown, did not want to stay. So, I told him he'd have to be quiet in big church and sit with mommy and daddy. As soon as we got up there, and he saw that we weren't truly leaving him, he was ready to go back down. <br /><br />Basically, I've said a lot, but have provided no help. All I know is that it does appear to be a phase. One thing I have worked really hard to do is always say goodbye. I don't like to sneak away or just disappear. I want him to learn and to know that when I say goodbye and walk away, (Lord willing) I'll be back.<br /><br />Am visiting from Kelly's Korner. I am a work out of the home Mommy and plan to check out your series! I'm also your newest follower. Glad to meet ya. :)<br /><br />KateSeriously Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10321044809588778953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6898922762803193029.post-81361890006449344592013-10-12T12:13:08.576-05:002013-10-12T12:13:08.576-05:00Crew is absolutely adorable.

She follows me everywhere and sometimes wails as soon as I take 2 steps away from her. I hope she will grow out of this phase soon. Good luck to you too!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13604073741455206873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6898922762803193029.post-47492681717453722812013-10-11T17:41:46.649-05:002013-10-11T17:41:46.649-05:00We have a 2.5 year old and have the same separatio...We have a 2.5 year old and have the same separation issue.

We bought Superman on Friday for Parker. Now he goes to his closet every day and trys to talk me in to letting him play in it. As far as the seperation anxeity goes, I think it must be a phase. Parker is the same way but it's not consistant. It happens 1-2 times per week. He will beg me not to go to work, wants me to tote him around where ever I go, you get the picture. I hope it gets better soon.Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12766175884605441912noreply@blogger.com
