Brief history. The last 3 months of last yr, I was very unwell and ended up in hospital several time having op's etc etc. During this time DS behaviour turned and he played up a lot more, this was both at home and at playschool. Since being well about xmas, Ds has settled down at home and gone back to the kind/caring/helpful/affectionate child that he was before I had my problems, but apparantly his behaviour at playschool has not settled down.
The put him on report about the time it all started, and they have called the head-psycologist in today to assess him.
They have stressed all along that his behaviour is not usually aggressive towards the other children, and it more of a case that he get angry and bottles it up and he will emplode.
I got their observation reports yesterday and it annoyed me a lot, there was about 12 cases of things they had noticed, ok a few made me concerned, but to me it was like ok this women is coming in next week lets notice little things.
I have things like, all the other children walked into playgroup, but DS Ran.
He was gluing something and it wouldn't stick down, do he threw it on the table and huffed away. (is it just my son then that gets frustrated?).
DS hit under the table while his best friend came in and he jumped up and said boo!!!.
They made no comment in the report that I was ill, and also made a comment of one occasion when DS told them to leave him alone he doesn't want to be touched (this was when they touched his arm) they told me this at the time and then said to me that I was probably because he had a cold and wasn't very well (this not mentioned in the report either).
another occasion was that he wanted a certain book at group reading time, and he was not allowed it as the teacher was reading one, they told his twice to sit down, and in the end he got up and got his book and they let him read it. Ds likes firm control and needs to know where the boundaries are.
My ds is not no angel but I certainly know lots worse, and the child they are distribing is not the boy I have at home.
Just wondered really if anyone else had been assessed and what I am likely to expect etc etc.
because I am a little worried, but mostly angry because to me 75% of his reports to me are typical boy behaviour, ie standing in someones way. he is so tall for his age people cant believe he is not at school, wonder if that has something to do with it.
Honest advice as always.
