Nursery v Home - conflicting reports

littlewren

My son is still waiting to be assessed so I understand its somewhat speculative. 

The nursery dont seem to have any concerns with him at the moment. They say he is defiant - which is reflected by his refusal to potty train, something they cant get a breakthrough with either. He refused to leave the toilet area yesterday in protest which is something I deal with daily.

Is it possible for him to be able to cope better at nursery than at home? Or is it a sign that really its something im doing wrong and hes a normal child? They suggested I take parenting courses to help deal with his behaviour at home.  I will look into it I just feel like a failure especially since I have raised my daughter well without issue.

Any advice on similar situations would be appreciated.

  • Thank you so much for that its really interesting and actually describes my son well. Quite often when I collect him from school his first reaction upon seeing me is to cry, he is often extremly tired and tetchy. Every day after nursery he has to come home and put his pjamas on and snuggle under his duvet. I could be reading more into it than there is but it does explain his behaviour especially since they have started making him go to the toilet. :(
