Please advice on DS change of behaviour

[preciousmum]

Hi there.
My DS is 5 and half in reception.he's very mature and well behaved,i noticed that he hang arround with the same group of friend at school,when he's talking to me about them,and their caracter,he mentioned that one of them hasn't got very good manners that you mummy would be proud of him,and i didn't say nothing about him,though still play with him.For the last few weeks he's teacher mentioned that my son's behaviour became distruptive but not naughty.Also we useally walk holding hands,and recently he wants to walk alone ,and running and making funny loud voices while going or coming back from school,which i couldn't tolerate,i am worried that if i let it go,he might get into some sort of antisocial behaviour habits.I am really confused ,is it normal? or should i correct him everytime he did something that is anusual about him?at the same time iam worried that i am over reacting,and i don't wants to be a controling mum.Please advice iam in real dilema about what is acceptable and what is not? PS; SORRY ENGLISH is not my first language.).
Thanks.

I think you might not need to worry all that much. It is pretty normal for five year old boys to make funny loud noises. If the other boys' manners are poor, the fact that he's noticed means he probably isn't about to join in with that.

Thanks little for your time,this MN is great.).

agree with littlebylittle, it's normal for them to be noisy and boisterous at that age (well, it's normal for my lot anyway!)

and definitely if he is picking up on what he sees as bad manners in other children then he knows what you expect of him

that said, i do think there is a lot for just going with your instincts... so if you feel his behaviour is getting a bit over the top, or he is being too loud then there's no harm in telling him that :)
