Deflated
My son goes to nursery and every day when I pick him up they say how amazing he’s been and how he’s the happiest boy, he’s also always like this when we are around others. Yet on my own.. as soon as we get home.. it’s like he turns into the devil. He’s so demanding, cries until he gets what he wants and just is never happy. What am I doing wrong?!?

Agree with Sophie! My bub is the same!
Mine is the same! It’s also because they’re absolutely exhausted I think!
We get tantrums the second we get home! While frustrating I think it just means they feel safe and comfortable at home to let it all out
You’re doing absolutely nothing wrong. You are his safe space and he will feel comfortable having those emotions with you. But also don’t let them fool you, he will have had a couple of moments at nursery throughout the day I can guarantee!
My little boy is the exact same. It’s like a flip has switched as soon as he sees our house! It’s exhausting but echoing what everyone else has said, appears to be normal x

You are doing everything right by the sound of it ! We are our children’s safe space, they spend all day having to work at being calm and copying others around them that when they get back to us it can be hard for them to adjust. It’s them letting out all that frustration and anger they’ve held in all day out because you are the place they feel the most safe and comfortable to show their vulnerabilities. It’s so hard but it sounds like you’re doing a great job ❤️
