This is so wonderful and also a useful read for parents with children in school. My four year old sat on my lap for the first hour of a class birthday party recently. Other parents tried to coax her from me and encourage her to play and I reassured her (and them!) that she would if / when she was ready - which she did after the food had come out ☺️ I found it really interesting observing other parents with children doing the same - one left the party after 30 minutes and the other kept apologising on behalf of her daughter. My daughter is so different from my son - I learn so much from both of them ❤️
