BM and SS5 School Issues

LMR120's picture

For the past couple of weeks SS5 has been getting in trouble at school. He has been hitting people, hitting the teacher, screaming and the other day he even flipped over a desk. His teacher finally called to talk to BF because she feels that she is getting no results from talking to BM. He just started this school because BM moved into a diferent disrtict so that she could be closer to the babysitter. So BF sent her a txt yesterday asking when the kindergarten graduation was. She told him the date but said she didnt know the time and then procedes to tell him that she is moving him back to his old school. Here is what trips me out. Her reason for moving him is because her friends mother is a teacher there and she wants to teach SS5 because she feels "it would better for him to be at his old school rather than be at a school with a teacher that infuriates him everyday and want to send him home" So BF tells her that instead of switching school, she needs to work with him on self control and impluse issues and work on dicipline with him. BF also tells her that its not healthy for her to keep moving him around and switching school. Just wanted to vent about that because BF and I dont feel that the teacher infuriates him he doesnt have any self control.

Poor little guy is lashing out about something...that's one frustrated kid!

Your DH is 100% right about SS staying in that school and BM needs to start working with that teacher. She just wants to move him again because the teacher is making her look and feel like the crappy parent she is.

SS needs counseling. Aggression does not normally get better on it's own, and what if he hurts another child next time?

I agree with everything you said. I also brought up the fact that SS5 over eats and gaining weight. He is 5 and the new clothes the BF bought him dont fit him anymore and the clothes are a 6. When we put food down in front of him its like its his last meal. So with the issues with food and the anger there is def something going on that needs to be addressed

A child can be an emotional eater just like an adult.

I hope it works out, my thoughts are with you!
