When Alexander was three years old, he still loved to play with his Thomas the Tank Engine trains, only ate peanut butter sandwiches (no more Macaroni and Cheese), drank water (only), still loved to draw, and still enjoyed playing alone.
I sent Alexander to Friendship Christian School to enjoy a small school setting environment. Here troubles began.
The school required students to learn how to tie their shoes, but Alexander spend almost one year to learn and still could not get it right. Alexander did not want to play ball in school because, as he complained, it was too hot outside. Alexander refused to color his picture only one color within the lined areas. Alexander was often day dreaming. Alexander often could not pay attention. Well, Alexander more often than not was in the “timeout chair.” I tried to train him, talked to him, and took him to our pediatrician to check to see if he hasd ADHD, or anything wrong. Nothing, except - he is a boy and most boy is like this.
We continued to teach him and keep reminding him. After all, he was three year old and most boys are like that.
