[quote=Anonymous]I've posted several times over the past month about my 5 year old hitting other kids at daycare. I've discovered that when he does it, they give him a three minute time out and then talk to him about "using his words" to express frustration. He knows he's supposed to use his words, and he does everywhere but day care. I don't think this is enough for my strong-willed, impulsive child, and I've suggested that if he hits during recess, he be made to sit out the rest of recess. Instead of sitting up against the wall for 3 minutes, sit there for 20. Time outs stopped working for him 2 years ago and what works best is taking away privileges. Is this too harsh or unreasonable for a day care? If it were any other type of behavior, I wouldn't care as much, but hitting is unacceptable. [/quote]
