Thanks bright sparks. The last few days, I have decided that I was going to ignore everything that the mother told me (sounds horrible, I know...lol) and treat her as a child that I am just learning about.

I think that it is mostly the spacing out and inability to follow directions, that I believe, at her age should be able to, is most concerning to me. Although, I think that since she has started here, I have seen a slight improvement.

I gave it some deep thought yesterday. I think leading to her lack of understanding of instruction, may be the fact that she placed in a daycare that mainly spoke a foreign language. Do you think that it is possible that she simply conditioned herself to tune out instructions and space out during activities as she is so customed to not being able to understand what is happening around her?
