I was waiting outside ds classroom today. He is 4 and has just started. Whilst I was stood there I saw a boy smack ds over the head with his lunch box. Ds stood up and smacked him back. The little boy laughed and taunted ds with another little boy.
Anyway I had a word with ds teacher. I asked her if he was making friedns, or finding it hard - also told her what I had seen.
She then says "well, actuall ds has been very spiteful the last couple of days and not nice to the other children"
Now ds is very overtired and just come off of sterioids and antibiotics - he is mega grumpy so I can believe it - but it looked recipricle - but I dont want to make excuses for him.
How on earth do I deal with this??? At nursery he was sweet, lovely had loads of friends - no problems. He is usually so passive - so this is all new to me. He can be Boisterous - so think he is getting carried away.
How can I get it through to him - and what should I tell him to do if another child hits him first (tell the teacher?)
I feel so disappointed because I thought it was going so smoothly. Is this sort of thing normal? It is all new and I am worried he wont make friends.
please advice, thanks
