Delaying preschool to next year?

Anyone else waiting? We tried it and It was a horrible experience that traumatized me more then our little one, but made us realize how important classes will be this year. I’m feeling the major mom guilt and mom shame right now. My little one was too afraid to potty there and screamed the whole 3 hours so we were asked not to come back. My little one has mentioned that they didn’t make friends at school, but we are trying to distract with other activities. I know everything will be fine and I will make sure we do routine classes this year, but just wondering if anyone else is waiting a year? I wish it worked out this year, but it’s been 2 days and I’m still wondering why they let my little one cry for 3 hours instead of calling me to pick up?!! Their response was we should see a doctor. No your response should be calling the parent and not traumatizing my child or me. Ok I needed to vent...

Update:

We took our little one to the doctor and they were shocked at how things were handled at the preschool. Everything they experienced was normal toddler behavior. Our child is potty trained, but afraid to use other potty’s. Our child is afraid to be away from us, but that’s all normal. I felt better after going because I wondered if something was wrong (the teacher made me feel like she has never seen a child cry or be upset for that long...why would my child calm down with you when you are a stranger and showing frustration to them?!) We start classes today (parent and child class) excited to do this together.

Good for you if you have had no problem with school and happy if your kids are going. I am looking to hear other people’s stories of waiting not if your kid is going this year.

Thank you for the ones who responded, we appreciate it!
