It started at 530 as Elliot usually does, he woke up most people in the house, he was shouted at for waking everyone up, he got frantic when Derek left. "Don't go don't go. I need another kiss and a hug " flying out the door after Derek. He got introuble for that. He didn't eat his breakfast, he dragged his feet getting dressed and packing his bag. He was defiant and disobedient. We got in the car and got to school, I dropped seb off first then went downto. Elliot's classroom, stayed a while, said goodbye then went back to sebs class to tell his teacher he was leaving at lunchtime. I had been gone for about 10 min and was heading to the gate on the other side of the school when I heard banshee like screeching and wailing coming from up the stairs, Elliot had escape his classroom and ran like the wind, crying and screaming the entire time "I need another kiss and a hug, mummy mummy" to say he was hysterical is a gross understatement, there was snot and dribble, blotchy faced sobbing and very nearly a vomit as he wretched on emotion and tears.
I took him back to the classroom and calmed him down - a bit, it was a long way to come down. And knew I had to leave cause I was just fuelling it too. But concerned that he had escaped the classroom and no one was following him.
He does want to be a ninja when he grows up so maybe he used his ninja stealth to escape?
So we sat at the gate in case there was another freedom bid. I will talk to his teacher tomorrow about it when things are calmer.
Elliot and I are going to have a cup of tea together this afternoon and have a chat and get to the bottom of it and set some new (more) rules
1. Don't leave the school ever.
2. Don't leave the school ever
3. Don't leave the school EVER.
- I wrote this somewhere
Oh I hope things have improved. Good rules though, good rules.
