Case: I Love Your Brown Skin
I have a little student in my class that is already infatuated with girls. As I am sitting in the rocking chair teaching, he will rub my legs and express to me how he loves brown skin. I redirected him and he was doing better, so I thought. I p.e. he tries to kiss little girls and tell them how pretty they are. I teach kindergarten. What are some positive ways I can redirect him without making him feel embarrassed for having a crush?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I had this problem in the past. I would speak to the student with anotehr teacher or counselor, so he does not feel like you are attacking him and let him know he cannot put his hands, feelings or express words like that to other students. Tell him there is a policy and it is in the handbook. |

| Comments: This solution worries me a bit, because he is so young, and already we are telling him that he isn't allowed to express himself. True, there are appropriate and inappropriate ways to do so, but I would not use the words, "you can't tell your feelings or express yourself." My son is a very affectionate little boy, and he was acting in similar ways to this case study. His teacher pulled him aside and spoke to him about it (he was kissing his friends on their cheeks). She also called me and let me know, so I could talk with him about it. We had a good chat about relationships and appropriate ways to express affection with other students and teachers. If you think about it, a child that young has probably only been exposed to a few relationships - namely his parent(s). Affection is frequently physical, and uninhibited compliments are accepted at home. Honestly, the student is in all likelihood acting innocently, and only needs to be informed on what is okay for school. |

| Comments: I think this might make the situation worst since you are singling the student out. |

| Comments: This is good. Not making him feel cornered or wrong is important. it will also reinforce the seriousness of personal space. |
