Final words on separation anxiety
Can they manage without us this young, you may think
to yourself sometimes? With your help your child will
develop the trust that even when you go away, you will
return soon. They will develop the trust from experience
that you can go away and return after some time and
they can manage while you are away. And lastly they
will develop the trust that during the long periods
of absence, they will be with people they can trust
such as grandparents, aunties and teachers - enough
trust that their needs and wants will be met without
you being there.
The day will come when this phase like many others will pass. Fortunately your child will discover that she can separate from you and yet be fine, that wherever you go and whenever you go, you will return and all that transpires between the time you leave and return will be just fine!
