Sorry not ignoring you been at clinic with laddo all afternoon.

Cant understand it as she loves Dr Who Ann I have never watched ET so maybe a film to watch together.

she has come home happier as her Head came into their class and her teacher told him she was upset so he spoke to her and she said shes not frightened now, will have to go and ask him what he said.


Wonder what the next thing she doesnt like is.

Dawnie, would it help if she watched the film ET? He is the least scary Alien, very cuddly and loved by the children. Explain it is like all stories not really true.

when my son was little
he had a theory that ghosts where really aliens
that took the form of our lost loved ones
so as not to frighten us then they could study us

good theory for a child

they have to write a story on it so suppose its to get their writing skills up, can remember last year when i was at an assembly they read one of the stories out.

Will see what happens when she comes home today .

It sounds to me as if the school is completely out of order in feeding nonsense to vulnerable little ones.

Pretending that aliens are a fact and can abduct people is beyond reason

their topic at schol is space and they apparently have a whole unit of aliens.
She came home yeterday wanting cuddles and saying she was scared and told us what she had done at school and the head had been taken away by aliens.
She wouldnt go to bed last night and wanted to stay with me and when she was asleep hubby tried getting her to her bed but she kept crying and fretting about them, finally got her in her room at 11.30.

Have had to tell her teacher today so they are going to talk to her and take her to the head to show her that he is back and ok.

Didnt think they were meant to get afraid of school lol. Mind Laddo when they did Little red riding hood he got so upset at the pictures of the wolf the TAs had to cover the pictures up for him.

Is it only my children that have these fear
