    Post: What to do with a pincher/puncher...?
    Posted by: ASW on 10/16/09

    Hello,
    I am at a loss with what to do with one of our newest three
    year old boys. He is a pincher/puncher! He will approach
    a child, unprovoked, and pinch their cheeks in a harsh,
    violent way or punch at another child for no apparent
    reason. I am trying my hardest to observe when this happens
    the most (usually during transition times) and feel
    completey un-Montessori and too authoritarian when I tell
    him he must stay with me and not move. However, the safety
    and well being of the other children are being
    compromised. I have told the mother about these events and
    am sensing I must call an official meeting. Other parents
    are beginning to ask me about this child... Has anyone
    gone through a similar experience? Have you ever dis-
    enrolled a student do to this type of behavior if it does
    not improve? Thanks so much.
