[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've had 2 in Lafayette pk so far and have never seen what I would call verbal abuse. I have seen firm or sharp corrections on occasion [b]but not any different than your average cranky parent. [/b]I actually think it's a good thing when adults say what they mean to kids. I'd rather my child be overcorrected instead of being left to mess up and not take criticism because adults are scared to offend a child or parent. I don't want my kids to grow up with limited ability to self correct and an overability to take offense and overanalyze. [clipped] [/quote] When I take my crankiness out on my kids by speaking to them more sharply than I should, I feel bad. I try to minimize that as much as possible. I don't think it's developmentally correct for 4 and 5 year olds to have to deal with the equivalent of a cranky parent every day, all day.[/quote]
