[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Rowdy" can mean so many things, but the bottom line is that you are judging a 10 yr old as totally responsible for his/her behavior.  As a parent of a child with special needs myself, I know that even kids with two parents and a stable loving home can still be "rowdy."  There are lots of reasons for these behaviors in children-- do you really want to blame the kids themselves?  BASIS needs to do what other schools and institutions do -- meet the kids where they are and give them structure, services, and unconditionally kindness until they get it together.  10 year old kids who are "rowdy" are not axe murderers, they are kids with needs that should be met by BASIS.

And Miss Judgmental PP, if your child is smart, organized, kind, hard-working, successful and specifically not "rowdy," well, you are blessed.  I hope you know how LUCKY you are.  It's not your parenting or your genes; you just won the child temperament lottery.  So far, that is; time will tell.  And let's see how the sibling does.  Good luck.  [/quote]

You sound like such a lousy, LAZY parent.

How can you justify your child's poor behavior and honestly feel good about calling yourself a parent. Teaching your child how to behave is one of the very first things we teach them. At age 10 your child knows right from wrong and should've been taught how to behave, have self-respect, and show respect for others by not being disruptive, violent, unkind, well....'rowdy'.

Did you not teach your child appropriate behaviors for different settings? Really? How can you hold a SCHOOL (that came in at the age of TEN) responsible for "meeting your child where he's at" and dealing with his behavior when you GAVE BIRTH to the child and "raised" him for 10 years but FAILED miserably at doing so????? Basis has how many children on its roster? And you have how many in your dysfunctional home?

As for PP, if her child is smart, organized, kind, hard-working, successful, and specifically "not rowdy" it's not because of a luck of the draw or some sort of parental lottery. Her child gave into the world a blank slate just like yours did. The difference is that she put in the time and work teaching her child social skills. I should know. My child is described as all of those things and I know for a fact it's because of what his home-training and upbringing.

You are one lazy, classless, excuse-laden poor excuse of a parent. You AND your husband.[/quote]

I knew parents like you, who thought their "perfect angel(s)" was due to their expert parenting.  Then they had another child.  And found out the hard way.

I hope you don't treat your children the way you did the PP and call them "lazy, classless, excuse laden poor excuse of a child of mine."   Although, actuons due speak louder than words.[/quote]

Do you really believe well-behaved children are the result of some kind of luck????

What do you think PARENTING is all about??? Providing a roof, meals and clothing? It's about preparing your child for success in the real world--socially, emotionally, intellecutally, etc.

The fact that loser parents like you don't get this explains to me some of the behavior I see in kids today.

I know of many, MANY ENTIRE families where every single child knows how to behave because THEY'RE PARENTS TRAINED THEM instead of simply crossing their fingers and hoping for the best.

What a LOSER.

Not any of the PPs, I just clicked on the thread.  This particular post really jumped out because of the ALL-CAPS SHOUTING.  Wow, you really get wound up over some anonymous posts on the internet!  Screaming at people who disagree with you (especially when they are correct) doesn't do much to make you sound persuasive.

The modern education system was designed post-industrialization, and the theory was as much about socialization and creating model citizens and employees as it was about imparting knowledge.  Expected behavior is, in fact, part of that system.

I hope you're doing something to relieve your stress, you could really use a new hobby.

Also, I'll ignore "actuons" and "intellecutally" above because typos happen to everyone.  However, THEY'RE PARENTS didn't train them, THEIR PARENTS did.  It's a common mistake among the less-educated.
