Aw bless maybe ending up in A&E has spooked him now and he might have it in his head this will happen every time he goes? I know if Charlie has a bad experience anywhere he doesn't want to go back. He hurt himself quite badly once in a certain park and never wanted to go back there again but we did go back, and I explained that what happened before wasn't going to happen every time.

Hopefully he will feel better in a few days when he forgets about what happened. Good luck!

Oh no, poor him and poor you I had a similar situation yesterday, although we didn't end up at hospital. My daughter fell over while we were waiting for the doors to open and grazed her knee. She was hysterical. her teacher whisked her away from me. It was the best thing to do but Emma was really sad about not saying goodbye to me

She also went through a phase of not wanting me to leave when I dropped her at nursery. The teacher did the same - whisked her away from me. It really is the best thing. If you have trouble next week make sure there is someone there who can take control and lead him into the classroom after a lovely big smile and kiss to mummy.

It is hard good luck! It will get easier!
