I think I prefer tears

I took two days off to help Aidy adjust to his routine….He is a “school” going boy now and day one is done and dusted while day two is in progress…
I expected some tears and “mommy don’t go” instead I got nothing of the sort…I got “hurt” he looked at me with such hurt and seemed so betrayed it broke my heart…
Actually when I picked him up he walked over to me emotionless and stepped on my foot before allowing me to pick him up…
This morning I dropped him off and he kinda just accepted it, didn’t cry after me but also wasn’t thrilled to be left there he just stared at me with big eyes … fighting off his teachers attempts to lure him away…eventually she took him to ball pit and that helped,but the guilt oh the guilt – here is to things getting better “once he gets used to it”
Is just under 17 months not a little young for emotional blackmail?
