Hi, my 4 year old son started school in September, having attended nursery there for a year, so it wasn't a huge change for him. He went through nursery with the same friends that he is now at school with, and a couple of new children joined in September.
My son seems to be very possesive of his friends and very jealous if they are friends with anyone else. On Monday night his teacher took me to one side and said he had banged his best friends head against the wall. I was horrified, not least because he has had a run in with his friend before and the little boys parents weren't amused!
I took my son to one side and asked him why he had done it...he said that his friend has told him he wasn't going to be his best friend any more. I explained that even so that was no excuse to be violent and bang his head off a wall! I am really worried that my son becomes too attached to people and is quite "intense" in his relationships. My husband and I certainly aren't violent people, I do shout at my kids but then don't all parents!!!!
I feel like I am doing something wrong...I don't know how to calm my son down and stop him getting so angry....he has a habit of growling at people too which is really embarrassing!
Anyone any tips or recommendations!
Thanks!!
