Hi Trout. I'm sorry to hear about your situation and I empathize. I would also ignore the advice about not encouraging her. Can you arrange play dates with a child from the 1-3 room? Can you help her visualize going on her own to help her work through any issues she might encounter?

Our DS7 is bored in school but refuses to attend a higher grade classroom for math or english. When I asked this morning if he would like to stay home one day a week to take different classes he said, "No. Then I will only have a few friends who have liked me all along and everyone else will hate me."
