B. What would you say and do to help the child to settle?
Big boys don't cry!
Milo (3.4yrs) is having a bad day. He arrives at 7:45am with his father Jon, who is looking a little harassed. Milo has
been attending the centre for 18 months and usually separates quite happily. Today he is upset and both father and son
appear to be on edge. The following occurs:
Jon: 'Okay, Milo put your bag away and give daddy a kiss.'
Milo doesn't move, he is looking down.
Jon: 'Come on Milo daddy has to go to work.'
Milo does not respond, so Jon takes Milo's bag from him and puts it in Milo's bag bay. Jon then bends down and kisses Milo,
saying 'have a good day. I'll see you this afternoon.'
Milo begins to cry and clings on to his father's leg. Jon gets annoyed.
'Milo, don;t be silly. Go and play with your friends.'
Milo cries louder and clings on. Jon extracts Milo from his leg and holds Milo away from him saying, Milo, big boys don't cry.
Stop being so silly. You know daddy has to go to work and i am already late!'
Jon looks for a carer, 'Here's jenny, she'll look after you.'
Jon makes a rapid exit with Milo continuing to cry.
When Jon returns in the evening to collect Milo he comments to the carer: 'Milo was a real sook this morning, weren't you Milo.'
What is your answer so far or What have you done so far as an attempt to solve this question?
I don't know what to say to his father.
but i would comfort Milo and let him know that his father will be back to pick him up and suggest would he like
to join in an activity or game.
