DD is 6. I've spoken to her teacher and she said last term she was good as gold but this term she is getting into trouble every single day. They have a 'tracker' for bad behaviour and every time you go on it you lose 1 minute of 'golden time' on a Friday. Well needless to say she lost all of her 25 minutes of golden time last week and most of it the week before. The consequences (punishments) I give out are: time out, lose TV, lose certain toys, no treats. I always praise for good behaviour but it makes no difference. The other week she lumped a girl in the stomach for no apparent reason. 90% of her warnings and time outs at school have been for no listening and ignoring the teacher's instructions. Everyone is telling me I am too soft on the punishment side of things and while I would never consider physical punishments, I can't even bring myself to shout because it feels like abuse. What else can I do?
