Case: My Child Does Not Do This At Home
There is a child in my class that is extremely smart. However, he is very sneaky and I catch him playing and being disruptive all day long. It has become a huge problem because I have to stop instruction every few minutes to redirect the behavior. When I talk to the mother she is just floored. She just does not understand how her child can be acting this way when he is so good for her at home. I do know that he is the only child. I have tried to figure out why he may be acting out and I was thinking that maybe it is because he is adjusting to being around other kids and in the "classroom" environment. Now, the mother is wanting to come in while I am teaching and observe to see how he is acting. I don't know how to tell her this but I just do not think that it will help. What are some ways I can handle this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
First and foremost I think it is important to tell the mother positive things about her child as well as the negative things too. Parents do not want to hear how their child is continuously disrespecting and not following the classroom rules. Maybe relate with the parent and let her know that maybe the reason for this child's behavior is due to him being the only child and you feel he still has some socialization skills that need to be improved upon. Maybe suggest that she takes him around other children his age more often. For example, maybe enrolling him in karate or soccer, and get him used to following those rules and regulations. |

| Comments: I think this is a great solution. It is very important to not only make contact with parents because of negative behaviors but for positive behaviors as well. The suggestion of another activity to get the student involved with other students his own age is a great idea. That might alleviate the issue. |

| Comments: I completely agree that parents don't want to hear that the child is making a mistake or that they are being a problem. In any parents eye, their child is the best so by explaining some positive aspects might help the parent recognize what is happening. I would recommend maybe having the parent have some of the friends over to do homework to see how they do in a social situation and definitely enroll him in a karate or soccer team. I would recommend even talking to a previous teacher of the student. |
