[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son has been too social in class and has been disruptive to other students. He never does anything physical; it’s more an issue of not listening to the teacher and not following directions the first time given. His teacher has notified us a few times about him needing constant reminders and redirection. She says he’s a bright kid who is trending above benchmark but he’s just way too talkative. Recently, our son told us that he is now sitting next to his teacher and is no longer sitting with his classmates. The teacher told us he is listening better now that he is sitting next to her. [b] But, our son is feeling bad about himself and we are afraid that his self esteem will suffer if he continues to be separated from his classmates for the rest of the school year.[/b] Should I just let this go or try to advocate for him being seated back with his classmates in the new year? [/quote] OP, I thought you were going to say that your son was being pulled out of the class or something. He's still in class with his classmates. He's upset because he wants to talk and he is not allowed to. It is YOUR JOB as his mother to explain the situation to him. Please think of the teacher and the other students in this scenario. Yes, your son may be happier when he's able to sit at a table and distract his friends, but literally no one will be learning anything, including him. Is that what you want?[/quote]
