Every day I am getting collored by dd1's teacher about her behaviour, monday she had stratched some kids, tuesday it was because she had an accident at school, and went to the 'wrong' toliet at lunchtime, today it was because she was pushing other children over. I told the school well in advance that she had behaviour problems. The teacher said its only been happening since I took her on holiday and then she had the half term, so she had 2 weeks off, make me feel like a crap parent, I can tell you. Her behaviour has got worse, I know that, but I'm worried they will expel her soon. The tecaher said that her concertion level are very poor and she isn't listening to her, they know she has mild hearing loss, and her attention skills are poor, but they don't seem to take in any of this info. she is 5 btw
I spoke to dd1 this afternoon, she burst into tears and said that her teacher hated her!!!
I don't know what to do........

can you get a session with you, DD and the teacher. Start with DD thinking the teacher hates her and then go on from there. Try and get DD to help solve the problem - so that she feels involved and not just being told what to do.

Also maybe try giving her fish oil to help concentration.

poor little dd! Surely they can't expel a five year old for what you have described?

have you been down the adhd route with the doctor?

I know they can't just expel her, but the school have a tough anti-bullying code, and I scared they will see her as a bully. I have big problems with her at home too. She has to see her pead. tomorrow so am going to discuss ADHD with them as i feel she has it.
I just don't know what to do really, the school seem to think I can just 'sort her out' by talking to her, but she has always had behaviour problems ever since a tiny baby.

no, if it is adhd, you cant just sort it out like that, as anyone knows who has experience of it.

hope you get a result from the meeting with the paed.
