Yeah. It’s frustrating. We got this pretty well dumped on us suddenly by a first grade teacher who was A) in her first year and B) clearly having a bad day (despite being warned that our kid hadn’t slept great and would probably be challenging that day).
We’re lucky that we’re catching it early and taking it seriously. Hopefully, we’ll be able to help our daughter (she’s 7) navigate all this better. She really struggles with friends and social cues (so did, for that matter). We’ve got her in play-based counseling for the big emotions and we’re working on her diet (she has a lot of food-based allergies and a few seem to make her reactions stronger).
It’s just hard to watch her struggle like this.
