[quote=Anonymous]Hmm.  As an SWS parent I'm really hoping that it's someone else's kids you're talking about and that it's a parenting/personality issue and not a schooling problem. While I can think of a couple kids that might fall into this "lacking discipline" category, it honestly feels like most of the kids are pretty well-mannered to me, and those that are...let's call them "restless"?...seem to get their not-so-disciplined energy redirected in appropriate directions if they act out in school.

We're talking about kids who are no older than 2nd grade so, I'm not sure what type of discipline you'd be looking for a public school teacher to provide to such young children, but I have seen them employ a "take-a-break" and positive reinforcement discipline strategy quite regularly, and it seems pretty effective.  Thinking back over our three years there, I can't think of a single incident of a teacher allowing disruptive behavior to effect other students or letting bad behavior go unaddressed.  [/quote]
