[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, behaving like a good citizen (and teaching your kid the same) is such a drag.  Safety in the classroom - why would anyone want that?[/quote]

This must be your first child. You realize a 5 year old is not a reliable source of information on classroom behavior. [/quote]

I'm not sure this was the OP who said that.  It seems to me the OP has a pretty rational view on the whole thing and is just asking for some feedback.  Other people have jumped on her question and turned it into some safety vs bullying/IB vs OOB/JKLM vs not alarmist thread.

OP:  I think you are right to notice what your child is saying; you are doing the right thing by keeping a dialog going while recognizing you are talking to a 5 year old.  I think those that have mentioned following up with the teacher makes sense - if s/he knows about it, s/he can say so and talk about what is normal vs not this time of year, what s/he is doing to teach her students about how to treat each other, or whatever else s/he would be inclined to say.  Beyond that, I think, unless you are truly alarmed by what is going on, letting the teachers handle it at this point makes the most sense.

If the behavior persists, and your child is suffering for it, then you step it up.  Until then, small reaction for small problem.[/quote]
