[quote=Anonymous]I explain to my child that the person who retaliates is often the person who gets caught and gets in trouble. Thus, it is important that if DC chooses to retaliate, DC does so deliberately. I prefer my child move, request help, or firmly assert boundaries (including yelling "STOP HITTING ME!" should quieter boundary-setting not work). I have told my child that when encountering a persistent trouble-maker, positioning one's self near an adult can be helpful. Additionally, advocating for herself and letting the adult-in-charge know that another child isn't behaving was a good tool for laying the ground work so that if she did eventually retaliate in some way, the adult-in-charge was more likely to know it was retaliation and not unprovoked assault.[/quote]
