[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again. My DH does drop off and pick up. I think the details of my commute and work hours are pretty boring but I leave the house at 7 and return at 4:30.

My sons are 8, 6, and 4. All of them participate in athletics, are over 100th percentile in height, etc. They are hilarious and fun! All are outgoing, opinionated, and loud. Big personalities all around, including DH. But of course we always emphasize listening to adults, being calm inside, and only playing rough when all parties agree.

I will look into karate for DS4. I hesitate to overschedule at his age, though. We don’t get this feedback from coaches, Sunday school teachers, or other adults, so I think it’s just being at school with no outlet in the mornings until playground time mid-morning.[/quote]

That's a long day for a teacher.

It sounds like you need to double down on the listen to adults, being calm, and playing rough only when all agree because he's not getting the message and hasn't been for a while.

Another benefit of karate is the focus on self discipline which should help him as well.

Good luck.[/quote]

That’s a very normal day length for a teacher, especially when you add in a commute.  [/quote]
