But once he was in the day, everything changed. Indeed Rizky enthusiastic when going to school, but when he got in school, she was sulking. Not wanting to go to class and do not want to be his mama. May need adaptation, so think Ria. However, the second day was still so well. It was the first day of kindergarten is a day that worrying for parents.

Parents worry about whether your child will feel at home with his new environment, whether the child will be obedient to his teacher, until the anxiety whether the child will be accepted by the surroundings. Conversely, existing in the minds of children when first entered into the school is whether his friends are good people, whether teachers together with their parents and many other thoughts.

Told by mental health professionals from Omni International Hospital in Tangerang Alam Sutera, dr Kresno Mulyadi SpKJ, that every child who faces the first day of school will experience different feelings. Some children have a happy, but not the least is also frightened by the fact that his new world.

"Every child is different, especially in terms of feelings. As their feelings when he first entered the school, "said Kresno.

Kresno said, some children are scared when you first go to school is normal and natural. Toddler period is a time of growing children, including the development of imagination. They imagined a wide range of what they see, feel, or think.

"In age, the child's imagination is growing optimally," said the psychiatrist, graduate of Faculty of Medicine, University of Airlangga this. Some children have already thought about the school there is imagination in the new environment that was fun.

However, some are imagined in the environment later is a place that is not fun or a place that always looks formal, more stringent rules to teachers who are not friendly.

"It could have imagined the child is a nice place. But when he saw the reality, not according to what they want, "he explained.

Parents should understand that children are not adults. Children are people who have limitations in some instances, such as in the case of reasoning, thinking, including limited way to communicate and deal with the new world.

"Not that easy to adapt the child. When they are scared, then they are also in transition, "said a psychiatrist who is also the twin brother was Kak Seto.

Kresno recommend that parents accompany children during the transition period. Accompany the child about two weeks. And the teacher, should not impose new regulations to the child inside. Teachers also can still tolerate child if there is still delivered and accompanied by her parents.

"Explain in more detail to the children about the school that the school is very exciting and fun," suggested the psychiatrist who also practiced at Yayasan Mutiara Indonesia, Institute for Management of Children with Special Needs This.

The same is said by the child and adolescent psychologist from the Institute of Applied Psychology, University of Indonesia, Jakarta, Priscilla Fabiola MPsi Setiawan. According to him, encouraging children to socialize with the new school before entering the school are also important in the elderly, for example, meet with teachers and classroom space.

"If that is done, the kids can be more comfortable, did not even wait for time to go to school," says psychologist who teaches at the Faculty of Psychology, University of Atmajaya Jakarta.

On the first day, parents or people nearby may deliver the child to meet with teachers, a brief goodbye, and then immediately left. Because if a child dared to be left behind, then no problem to resume your activities.
