[quote=Anonymous]In that case, I'd look for a super strong teacher in the creative field he is interested in and pursue instruction there. Two things: one, the routine may feel humiliating. That is the thing about private school---everyone does it. I agree that there are compliant children or those who are browbeaten into it, but honestly they are few and far between. Second, I recommend that when he starts screaming and such, you physically stop. Turn and look at him, and say: sit down please. Of course he won't, so you just wait. Look at him, don't react, don't escalate consequences, just wait. Also, pick starting this battle when you have unlimited time, because you can't change course. Wait til he sits down. Repeat expectation, walk off. If he follows, tell him to sit down and wait him out. Lather, rinse, repeat. It will take about a week....if you can't deal with it at the time, don't start. Don't talk to him when he is screaming, don't engage. [/quote]
