Two short term classes isn't over-scheduling. The boy needs activity and those are great things. Plus he'll sleep well, which is always a good thing.<br /><br />On the church thing - ditto what others have said. I think he's not quite ready to be with the older kids and he's not getting the attention for the potty needs. We put Jesse in a pull-up for church and take a spare (in case of poop). There are enough kids in his class that the adults can't always tend to the potty needs.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03653405304069881340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7778486.post-84846719967090085152010-05-31T07:37:11.485-04:002010-05-31T07:37:11.485-04:00Both activities are actually mommy and me - so I&#...Both activities are actually mommy and me - so I'm required to be there/participate, so that's actually a bonus point in their favor. If they weren't though, I would totally go for that idea though CTG...and I may see if there's a way to do that at church for a bit to see if that improvves.bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07410141302890616932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7778486.post-21043121639833280982010-05-31T03:07:21.007-04:002010-05-31T03:07:21.007-04:00Can you supervise one or both of the activities yo...Can you supervise one or both of the activities you are thinking about? Where he is with the teacher and the class, but you are close enough to see the interaction dynamic? I was a tantrum thrower. Big time. But I started swimming lessons and gym about that age, and my mom was always there, with the other moms, not involved in the class, but able to step in if I needed something the teacher wasn't aware of or capable of. Just a thought.Caltechgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12345301047241880464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7778486.post-18266630560684074262010-05-27T19:04:37.681-04:002010-05-27T19:04:37.681-04:00I agree that he should go back to the other class....I agree that he should go back to the other class... he's not emotionally mature enough for the new class and might be acting out. But in any case, the new class teachers are not giving him the attention he needs ref the potty. For activities, i dont see why not. it just two of them. or pick one. but do one of them at least.Lynellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09979796708985715281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7778486.post-39447273362128277132010-05-27T15:51:31.196-04:002010-05-27T15:51:31.196-04:00I'm looking for summer opportunitites for Juli...I'm looking for summer opportunitites for Julian also so can share your concern. Only guessing on the church thing, but given that he potty trained so young (for a boy at least), could be frustration dealing with older kids not communicating nicely with him...I know he's advanced verbally, but maybe not as advanced as he'd like to be in the heat of the moment. Maybe you could put him back in the other class? It's so tough finding balance! *hugs*Gwynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16540042878760457834noreply@blogger.com
