During the last few weeks we have experienced strange things with
He-Lee.
She seems to afraid
of crowded places (well, even 5 people is crowded for her) or places she
doesn't know. This leads to crying and a request to go back home. For example 2
weeks ago, we went to a birthday party. We know the family and He-Lee knows the
2 children. They are her friends. She ran all the way to the house, as she
knows the way but once we opened the door and she saw more people, babies and
children she went back outside asking to go home. When that didn't help she
went into to restrooms and sat on the toilet (saying she has to pee) for 20
minutes!!! When I finally got her out, she started crying and we had to take
her back home.
Yesterday at her
day-care End of the Year Party, she didn't want to enter the room (even thought
she knew everyone!!!) because it wasn't her usual classroom. She stayed outside
in the hall (dancing, singing and doing everything the other kids did inside).
It took her 30 minutes to enter the class and participate... Only when the kids
went out to play, she ran to play...
Now I realize it
is perfectly natural, but it is really annoying. How long will it take for this
phase to over? We can't take her anywhere...
She won't stay in
shows (we spent too much money trying!!), she won't go to parties, and she
won't talk to 'new' people......
