[quote=Anonymous]About a month back, my daughter went through a similar phase, except it was Kindergarten. I talked to the teacher, during parent-teacher conference, and it turned out she was misbehaving in school. As we talked, it occurred to me that the problem was that she was feeling lonely. With all the work they do, there wasn't enough time to socialize, and because I work, she goes to aftercare and we don't do afternoon play dates. Once her teacher moved her to a different table so that she could sit next to a friend, the anxiety/outbursts diminished, she stopped saying she hates school, and stopped acting out at home. Probably what helped, too, was my daughter knowing that there was a problem and talking about it. What didn't help was being strict and punishing her for misbehaving.[/quote]
