Separates calmly at gan
What it is
Settles within 10 minutes after you leave; most children adjust to gan within 4–8 weeks.
Start preparing
- Visit the gan together before the start; talk about it with a picture book.
- Same short goodbye ritual every day (hug, phrase, wave at the window) — never sneak out.
- Reunion: 10 minutes of full attention before errands.
When to check with a professional
Extreme distress that does not improve after 6–8 weeks of gan is worth a talk with the ganenet and the pediatrician. Development varies widely; this is a prompt to ask, not a diagnosis.
