My DS 8 (AS) has brought home a time out note for bad behaviour today. I asked him what happened and he was v tearful. At lunchtime he felt like he needed some time on his own so he went to the toilet and then to a quiet area. Two boys from his year shouted in his ears repeatedly "what's wrong" which obv made him upset and he lashed out. Whilst he understands he was wrong to lash out, the other two boys were not told off and put all the blame on DS. I have to sign the form and he has to take it in to the school office. Would i be unreasonable to make a point that DS obv felt out of sorts so tried to be alone to feel better and that the behaviour of the other boys caused DS to be upset. Hope this makes sense!
