In the morning children may not want to leave you and at pick up time children may not want to go home because they are involved with a fun activity. This is a natural occurrence and may vary with your child's age and developmental state.
To ease the situation, take one minute to help your child to feel comfortable and to adjust by offering positive statements. A parent who shows reluctance to depart only makes the transition harder for their child. Although parents should never sneak out without saying "good-bye" to their child, a brief good-bye with a kiss and a hug usually works best. Crying usually stops a few minutes after you depart.
