Hi all,
I had a call from the school today because my "just" 7 year old daughter has been starting kiss tag games and writing I love you notes to her best friend who happens to be a boy. The school think its a sign of attention seeking. I think its too many disney/ Barbie movies. Nevertheless, they say that she still wants to play those games even if the boys say no. They admit that they have no worries about her academically and that she is flying in that area. They said it was her attention seeking that needed to be addressed because she is doing it just to get the boys attention.
Any suggestions on how I can address this "attention seeking" ? It doesnt seem like a major issue to me - isn't this a stage they go through ? However I can understand teachers dont want any of their kids feeling uncomfortable. Not sure what to do and I do agree that it is probably attention seeking.
Any thoughts gratefully received !
