Sev can’t lose control, even down to school trips she drives Ela instead of letting her go on a coach because “she gets travel sick” she seems perfectly fine when you go on all your holidays and stick her in front of her iPad!
My daughter is a year above Ela in school and she does swimming, gymnastics, multisports, girls brigade. There’s sooo much for kids to do to help them develop and socialise but the only socialising sev cares about is her own!! All elas friends are because sev is friends with their parents. As a teacher, as someone has said you can choose to keep your children from any part of the curriculum but we only encourage it if it is completely necessary like medical reasons, autism, religion etc. Ela is so far behind for her age though with non of these things playing a part in it and watching peppa pig, opening her advent calendars for her, sticking her in front of an iPad and taking her out of school during term time for two weeks in turkey for a dentist appointment is going to help her get to where she needs to be!
