Just found out of another child,that my boy is pushing the kid's.I can honestly say he has not been like this before,he's copying a boy that's a bit horrible to him at school.He's had a telling off because i will not tolerate that behaviour.How do i handle this?he's in reception.i did say said name might do it,but you don't.

I wouldn't worry too much if the teacher hasn't mentioned it to you ( I was hauled in within the first week as DS is a bit rough). They come across it all the time and have great strategies for dealing with it - DS had a sticker chart for every playtime that he was not rough and it worked in under a week.

Just keep saying that it is not kind to push etc and it will sink in, especially if he is not particularly rough naturally.

Thanx.He really is a good boy,but apparently said name is a bit mean to him,i think ds is trying to get on his side.i really don't want my ds to be someone's puppy.So i'll defently nip it in the bud

I have just posted in primary as have the exact same problem, although i dont think he is copying anyone though. Also the teacher did mention it today so i'm gutted really. I do feel daft for feeling gutted mind!

What strategies worked for you heymango? I have suggested a daily sticker chart plus friday sweet shop stop if he stops??

I said if i find out hes done it again,i'll be taking his ds away.

That sounds like a great idea hairy

You could tell your DS that you are going to check with the teacher each afternoon and he will get a sticker if he has been kind (my DS had one per each play, i.e. 3 times per day). Then a trip to the sweet shop if he gets a full or agreed number of stickers.

Boys do go through this phase, particularly when they start school - think they have a surge of testosterone around this time too. It's mainly excitement I think.

Really though, you just need to back up the school if they think anything needs addressing. IME teachers are excellent at sorting the boys out very quickly.
