Rough Week...

This past week, Alexander had a pretty rough week at school. There was a lot of talking back, being fresh, not listening and even picking on one of his friends.

Throughout the week, the lack of listening was at an all time high. There were many times we would have to ask him to do something which then turned into telling him due to the lack of listening which only then escalated to a timeout or unhappy Mommy.

Supposedly, Alexander and a few other kids have been picking on another kid at school. They play with him but then they will antagonize him. It makes me very sad to hear (& see) my kid being a bully. He told me he kicked the poor kid and just wasn't very nice.

We've explained the importance of not picking on his friends or other kids at school as he would not like it if kids picked on him. We've also explained that if we hear he continues this behavior then he will get a punishment more than just no tv for an evening.

He needs to realize how serious this is and that he really needs to improve his listening.
