  Case: Too Touchy
I have a student who is very sweet but insists on being too touchy to everyone around him. It is most of the time just hugging and such but it is sometimes hitting or kicking (in a playful way). He is a very affectionate boy and he means well, but I know it makes some other students uncomfortable and I don't know the best way to handle it because I don't want his feelings to be hurt but he needs to respect others space.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
One general class rule should be, students keep their hands and feet to themselves at all times. Make sure the student knows the rule, and explain the consequence for that rule. Explain to this student why this rule is important to them and to others.

Comments: she's trying to not be harsh with the student, so I don't think she wants to punish him, or at least not in the way your talking about
