[quote=Anonymous]Well, since you asked what I would do: I'd tell my kid that I was disappointed that he hit another child. I'd make sure DCP knows to give an immediate time out when anything like that happens. I'd then roll play the scenario a few times at home - another kid is trying to take a toy away, how do you handle it? You can say "no!", run to the adult in the room, or you can simply give it over and find something else to play with. So play those good alternatives out so the kid can practice. Praise the good options. End the roll play with a recap that hitting is unacceptable and not an option. Then, I'd move on with my evening. At drop off tomorrow morning, I'd remind my kid what we talked about - that you can either call/run for help or give the toy up when another kid wants it. No hitting. Kiss & good bye. [/quote]
