Re: My child is a nightmare at school

More | Report Post

Hi: This situation needs inmediate action from your part and
the center. Ask the center to change yor child with another
teacher. If that is not an option remove your boy from the
center.Your kid is only 22 months not even 2 years old. He
is creating his own picture about school, learning and
relationships. He does not have the capability to express
what is going with him and his teacher, so you need to be
the advocate for him.
Maybe one of the reasons he is acting out is because that is
the only way he gets attention... or is because he is not
happy with what is going on.. etc
There are great teachers and not so great teachers and there
are others that they will be better if they choose another
professional career. So you need to keep your eyes and ears
very open and do what your heart and senses tell you is best
for your child. If it doesn't feel ok for him to be there,
take him out...

Good luck, Ines
