Over the last couple of months, Chloe's been getting more and more clingy and more shy around people she doesn't know, she used to be ok around other kids, but now I can't take her to a soft play without her crying her eyes out and asking to go home, and the second we're outside she's fine, and now it's adults too, even one's she knows. My brother popped in early this morning and she sees him a couple of times a month I guess and she clung on for dear life for 10 minutes, burying her head in my neck and refusing to look at him, then later on in the morning while I was at work, she was at my mums and a man came round to fix my mum's OH scooter and she hid in the kitchen and was physically shaking with fear until he left.
I don't know what to do, part of me thinks if I force the issue it's going to make it worse, but it's turning into a complete nightmare. She's fine with the people she sees all the time, like her nannies, then there are some people that she hardly ever sees that she loves, but everyone else she's terrified
Any help much appreciated
