Hi all
My ds and i have had a bit of an ongoing problem with 'bad' language - not really swearing but just inappropriate, he gets angry very easily and tells people to shut up a lot, that kind of thing.
Dh has always sworn a lot and i have major issues with it - i really dont like how aggressive it sounds and dh has made an effort to stop, but still does swear quite a lot, so ds will clearly be picking this up, although he knows it is wrong and hasnt tried it yet.
he really upset his friend today by calling her a 'flipping hell', I know it doesnt make sense, and isnt really name calling but she was very upset.
teacher says it is getting worse and caan she have our support (of course!), and he is making himself unpopular because of his rough and sweary manner!
He is quite new at the school has been ther about 3 months so still settling in, and he was really unhappy at his old school and he seems to come on leaps and bounds adn is happy to go to school.
DH and i were also commenting on how many more friends he has at htis school as he goes to play at friends houses and we have people back a lot too.
i helped on a school trip last week and was really pleased with what i saw of his relationships with others.
Sorry it is so rambly - i feel like such a failure - he is often cross and shouty, but also sweet and kind and loving. He has a really good heart, but is very easily upset or frustrated.
What shall i do?
He is 6 btw, in Year 1, not great academically but we have made a lot of progress since moving schools.
Thanks if you madde it to the end!
