Had DD3s school on the phone this morning to say that DD3 (8years old, year 4) had been 20 mins late for school - I cross her over the road she then goes around the corner and school is on the other side of that road, apparently her and 2 friends had walked out of the playground and 'gone for a walk'!Luckily my eldest daughters driving instructer had passed the 3 little monkeys at 9.10 (school starts at 8.50) and told them to go back to school.
We have some behavior issues anyway and I was wondering which would be the best way to deal with this, right off at the deep end,tears,yelling etc or sit down discussion(neither have worked in the past over minor transgressions!)
