[quote=Anonymous]The kid that did the shoving needs severe restrictions for a week. Because he needs time to reflect on why he resorted to trying to harm the other boy. Do not sugarcoat it. Do not make excuses for it. He can learn to do better but only if the adults around him make it very clear that his behavior is not OK. Right now he is being shown that the only downside to him trying to hurt his friend to win is he gets less attention. I would not pick a punishment that revolves around the injured child, as that will cause more resentment and the kid with the temper will likely act again. You make it solely about his actions. Adults viewing it said he crossed the line, make it clear what was seen, why it is not OK, and why he is being punished. [/quote]
