I have a 7 year old son and his teacher called me today saying that he was disturbing class. He sometimes gets out of the way and thinks he should get what he want’s. How can I make him mind me at home and while he is at school? What kind of punishments can I give him? He is the type that always wants to be in the middle of things and he wants to fight and he talks aloud while he is in class. The teacher said that he will do his homework but he wants attention all the time. They have offered the paddle, to paddle him but I don’t know if that will help him or not. I’m a single parent and it’s hard. And they said that they might have to send him home for a few days. How can I make him be a good student and mind the teachers and keep his hands to himself. he is sitting at a desk all to himself at school but that doesn’t help him stay quiet while in class. Any help would be very appreciated.
