I agree. Jaz went to pre school the first time at 2 for a few months. Then went a little while again at 3 for about 6 months. That was it til school.
Even before she started I used to have comments about how socialised she was. She was & still is a friendly, open & outgoing child.
Bri has only just started day care once a week this year. But she's never really had any social issues.
The only reason I put them into pre school & day care is really for more interaction with other kids their age. & for a bit of fun for them. Jaz is the oldest out of all our friends kids.
Jaz is actually the main reason we moved to where we are at the moment. There were only 12 kids at the school she was at & the only 2 girls close to her age were 2 years older than her. I wanted her around kids her age. The ones she was more friends with were 10 & 11 & talking about boys & stuff.
Children are socialised every time they are spoken to. By us, our friends, the lady at the corner shop. It's more having kids around their age that I worry about when they are older. I wanted Jaz to act & play with other 6 year olds, other wise she wouldn't know how to just be 6. iykwim?
