ASSALAM U ALAIKUM WA REHMATULLAH MAHA
I would share my experience of childhood. I felt very unprotected and cried out loud to mama plz dont leave me here in school. Then my mother made me to the class EVERY SINGLE DAY. Until the school principal said to my mother " if you want ur child to stand on his feet to face the world,then u'll have o leave him alone". After somedays i was ok. no more crying. My parents from the first day told teachers about thal status so that extra attention b provided HOWEVER OVERPROTECTIONISM or maximum care should be taken not let the child feel that he's being treated differently. Thats wut my mama says to me whenever i fightt with her now ;)

Thal or non thal, majority of the children will cry when they find themselves in a new environment. When my daughter started school she was holding a brave face until a little boy started to bawl and every single child followed suit. So crying is something expected and I do not worry about it. It is the unexpected problems I worry about. Alhumdulillah Hassan is a very friendly child, he doesn`t hang on to my dupatta (sometimes I wish he would so that I wouldn`t have to chase him around all the time, especially in public places). Some friends have offered to talk to the administration so as Hassan could get special care and I have refused them, for the very reason that he doesn`t feel any different from the others.
