<human>: my 2 year old daughter has been going to daycare for 6 months now. and it's has barely gotten easier, at least at dropoff. she attends m-f 8:30- usually 6:30, sometimes earlier. after 6 months, there's less tears but still whining and clinging.

about a month ago, apparently there was an accident where she was climbing a chair and fell, which lightly bruised her eye. she's fine, no need for a doctor or anything. but since then, she's been fighting MUCH harder, even at home. it's kicking and screaming to get her into the car and more crying once i need to drop her off. it's beyond regression.

only just today, i think she's easing up a little but who knows about tomorrow. we are considering changing daycares. the new one is a bit pricier ($50+/month when we are already paying $1200/month). the facilities seem better and maybe the curriculum. but more importantly, i'm wondering if the change in environment will be better or worse. in theory, she's accustomed to her current daycare because she knows the staff, some of the kids, and even recognizes our morning routine of when she has to go in. maybe a new environment will allow her to start fresh if she associates the current one as where she got hurt. this is one of those times i really wish she could talk to tell me why.

it's also a possibility she just doesn't want to be away from her parents regardless of where it is.

any suggestions?

Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?
<bot>: will changing daycares (ie. environment) be helpful to changing 2yo's attitude about daycare after 6 months of little progress in current situation?
