Hi Sylvia
I never told my parent's very much in advance, when they were going to daycare, because Mum would then worry and become agitated.
Just before the transport came I would get their shoes and coats on, ie. providing Dad had got up from bed, if not he didn't go,but I told Mum she was going to her club, or if that didn't go down well, she was going to work.
Maybe I made a mistake by saying work, because before she went into care, she was about to be expelled from daycare, for upsetting other service users. by clearing the plates and tables before they had a chance to finish eating or drinking. She was a catering manager when she worked, but the little white lies still got her to daycare and gave me some respite. but poor other people -- who didn't get to finish their lunch --
Dad was easier to cope with
Hope Dhiren does become used to daycare. You need the time to yourself and maybe he will enjoy it, but like my Mum won't admit it
Love
