[quote=Anonymous]OP here - thanks for the feedback. My daughter said the other girl tapped her on the head without asking when they were in line to come inside from the playground. The teacher said "punched" and didn't specify if it was open or close handed, and I kind of think that doesn't matter - hitting is hitting, and she shouldn't be doing it. I agree that almost five is too old to be doing this, which is why I'm looking for advice on what an appropriate punishment would be.

At school the teacher took my daughter in ahead of the other kids and talked to her, then had her apologize to the other child. I get that I'm not in charge of what happens at school and I respect the teacher's running of her classroom but I also want to be clear that this isn't acceptable so it doesn't happen again.

My daughter is sorry, but I think she's more sorry about the movie. She will be earning it back, and she's having a long quiet time in her room this afternoon. We'll apologize to the girl and her mother tomorrow morning. I know I would be furious if I were the other kid's mom, which is why I was curious what others would do.[/quote]
