[quote=Anonymous]If a 5 year old is hitting kids on a weekly basis then there is an issue and the school needs to address it. The kid should be sent hom each time it happens and there should be a 1 day suspension after the hit. The parents need to start addressing this now because it is an issue and it is not appropriate. By 5 kids know not to bite, hit, or kick. Wrestling and playing rough happens for ages but it is not an intentional act and it is very different then hitting. A child who is punching regularly at that age needs to learn it is not acceptable fast. It sounds like the pre-school you are at has a different philosophy and that you need to decide to leave if your child is being hit regularly and the school is not addressing it because the school is not likely to change what it is doing.
