[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Had taken that approach, but it seems like a rather severe immutable punishment for...talking in the hallways. If a child punches someone, which most would agree is a far more serious behavioral matter, are they given 3 months of daily punishment?

DD says they feel some kids are now treating them differently due to this.[/quote]

There are consequences to not following directions. Apparently this has happened many times, or the teacher would not have put this in place for the rest of the year.

This isn’t a “punishment,” it is a consequence. A punishment would be down in the principal’s office, or no recess, or you can’t walk with us at all. A consequence is this teacher is tired of this repeated, repeated, repeated behavior. Apparently since your kid WON’T stop talking, at least this way the teacher doesn’t have to freaking hear it.

I take it by your repeated defensiveness you aren’t taking this seriously and discussing at home/putting in place a consequence at home?  :roll: [/quote]
