Shine, I have a question about school related stuff. At the preschool where I work, the parents walk the kid's to the classroom on the first day. We do have three year old classes but the upstairs the kid's are preschool and pre k. This isn't just a one day thing, the director opens the door and lets everyone in. In January they ask to start dropping the kid's at the front door and letting them find the classroom on their own. After the first day, the hallway get's chaotic. I personally think we need to cut the cord. Just let them walk in, we can even wait and walk them up. My kid's preschool I dropped them off at the door and the teachers and their classmates were there and they'd wait until 9:20 and take the kid's up.
Kindergarten my kid's wanted to take the bus, okay. Their school you drop them off at the door and drive off. There's a person there directing traffic and two others, one for Kindergarten kid's and another for older grades. No going to the class room, no spending excess amount of time seeing them off. My morning routine, drive them. Person opens door. By guy's have a good day I love you, them, grunt blah blah. Whatever, just go.
I just suggested we cut the cord and let them in. It might help with the chaos. I got, oh no, we can't do that. What do you think? Am I being unreasonable thinking it might be better for the child to give them that bit of independence?
