My kids are in daycare and they have separation anxiety. They have been in daycare for 4 weeks and it is not getting better. What do I do? the oldest one refuses to eat and is making himself sick.

I just got the youngest out of the hospital for “respiratory distress,” he is 6 months old. I think he caught a nasty cold from daycare and it developed into something highly infectious
The oldest is 22 months and the younger one is 6 months.

My dog at the moment is only 5 months old. He is wonderful and I, being a stay at home mom, normally take him almost everywhere I go. But there are obviously times when he needs to stay home for a couple hours by himself. This is when he gets destructive. Not real bad but as he gets older it could get worse. Do you think getting another dog could help this? I’ve always had more than one dog at a time. This is actually the first time I’ve had only one. I’ve never had to deal with separation anxiety in a dog but I know it exists. Thanks. Please no stupid remarks or comments. I know how to take care of my dog.
Just in case anyone asks, the one I have is an Australian Shepherd. He is learning obedience and flyball and gets plenty of exercise and attention when we’re home.

I’m teaching kindergarten and I have a student who is undergoing separation anxiety. I talked to his mom and asked her help by talking to her son about new faces, new school, etc. I even gave her pamphlets, books,and infos about this case. But she never listened to it. She continues staying with her son inside the classroom, never letting the child do things on his own, leaving her when he’s not looking, coming back as fast as thunder when he cries. I offered to visit their home along with the other teachers to get to know the boy better outside school, but she declined. She’s starting to get into my nerves. Now she’s threatening to transfer the boy to another school if we cant do anything to make him be independent. What shall I do?

I have had this since I was a kid. Then it went away for a bit. Now that I just moved out on my own I have been having these anxiety attacks. My g/f is mad and doesn’t understand it either. I see a Doctor for my OCD every month, is this something I can bring up? I need help. I am very upset and depressed. I have talked with my Mom about this as well, and she said to talk to my doctor.

We just moved into a new home and our normally well behaved dog now suffers from seperation anxiety. He is on his third day of the Clomicalm and he seems more anxious than ever when we go to work (or leave the house for any reason). If anyone has any experience with this I would appreciate any feedback.
We are using his crate, he’s trying to bite his way out and he never has before =( I don’t want him to hurt himself.
