Ventilation! Feeling like a shit mother...
I just need to vent! I work alot and also am going to school to get my bachelors. Lately i have been feeling mass amounts of anxiety and not like myself at all. But i get it done to pay my bills. I have known for sometime that my 4 year old isn't really interested in ABCs and counting. He can identify some but not all and I was aware of this. I got him screened for PreK that specifically helps children who are a little behind and early intervention. I was super nervous because not only is he an only child, he hardly ever gets interaction with other kids and him also not knowing everything he should. Don't get me wrong I do try to work with him but he just doesn't care for the ABC songs or kid learning games. Well the point of this is they pulled me into a private room and told me he scored real low and looks like he may have a disability or delay. I . broke. Down. I knew he didnt know everything but a learning disability? I just feel like a horrible mother because i am supposed to be teaching him these things. I really feel like I failed him as a mom! The only upside to that day was that he had so much fun and is excited to start school! That the teacher said it was ok to not know the ABC song. I feel if he does we caught it early enough to work with him and get him on track. I just have all these thoughts. I have researching non-stop cool and fun kinesthetic activities and ABC hunt and that sort of thing. I just want my baby to succeed!
