[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would let them know the stakes are a bit higher than the PPs. Say the child needs to be on her best behavior so the school can see what a great little girl she is. Let her know the school can only have well-behaved children in its classes. I am sure this will be flamed, but children do need to understand there are expectations of them in life and setting a bar of decent behavior is far from flameworthy.[/quote] I set a bar of decent behavior for my child every day, so I wouldn't need to explain that to my child for them to know it's an expectation. My child went on several playdates that were poorly organized and where he came out and told me "I decided no on this one". I wouldn't have wanted him to have had the idea that behaving badly would get him out of going there. [/quote]
