| My six year old first grader is going through this phase (i hope it's a phase). For the last two weeks he has become emotional towards going to school, and leaving me. He has always loved school. His Teacher is amazing, and He is one of her best behaved and well liked students. He has lost motivation to do his work in class. He's last report card was covered with A's and B's. He cries in class for little embarrassments. And he claims he misses me and wants to go home. The first and only time I did pick him up, he changed his mind after we left the school. I don't want him to become dependant on me whenever things get tough, but also I want him to understand that I will be there when he just can't take anymore. I am a stay at home Mom, I have a four year old son who will start school in the fall. And my daughter who is almost five months old. He has never showed jealousy towards my daughter. My attention towards him has changed a little since she was born. I breastfeed so It's not like I can involve him in helping to feed her. I would love to spend some one on one time with him. Plus there are times when he is home and invited to his cousins or grandparents, he almost always jumps out the door. He even comes to me in the middle of the night and tells me he misses me too much...any advice will be greatly appreciated. Rachelle...Mom of Anah-Liese, Aidan and Cameron.

Within the next few months your daughter will start solid foods, he'll be able to help with that  When he's home from school do you get any 1-on-1 time with him alone? If not, it might be something to consider. I hope that it is just a phase for you. *hugs*
