He is in y1 and is always getting into bother. He has hadc2 red cards today and in the words of the HT was the worst he has ever been. He seems ok in class and the problems start at playtimes, kicking and hitting other kids and generaaly being violent with his play. The head has asked for a meeting and am happy to discuss, don't understand why he is like this. He is Jekyll and Hyde and can be a little angel. All his issues are with social situations

He has a loving home and is well cared for, gets lots of attention but is an only one could it be something I have done?

I think it's good the HT is onto this and asking for a meeting ( so many parents struggle to get the HT to assist.

There's various reasons why you child is struggling in social situations and the class teacher should be of help as they see them everyday in social gatherings.

You must be worried about it, but hopefully your child will get help they need. They must be feeling really frustrated to be lashing out, it's miserable being the kid people avoid/ wind up etc. Have you ever worried about their behaviour?

And it's nothing you have done. Just keep loving him.

He is always seeking attention he is very needy in that way, wonder if it is attention seeking in a negative way. He has his dads traits as he is a bit Jekyll and Hyde but as an adult can mange his conduct
