[quote=Anonymous]OP, i'm having a very similar issue with my almost 8 year old. it's odd because some days are good, some are bad, he acts up with certain teachers, not others. I swear to god in 1 school day i got an email from one teacher saying how wonderfully he's behaving in her class and an email from another saying how disruptive/loud/wiggly he was in her class. you have to commiserate with your kid because school days are LOOONG and boring for the most part. they live for the short recess and lunch times. BUT immediate consequences have to happen for bad behavior. I spoke with my child, let him read both emails, and we decided together what the "reward" for the good emails would be and the "consequence" for the bad emails. your kid HAS to conform to school, there's no getting around it. you can change schools but that's an awful lot of disruption to everyone. you should be making him fit to the school, not the school to fit him. trust me, I spent all of last year in the "did we pick the wrong school?" mindset...don't waste time and energy on that and focus on your kid's behavior.
