[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]This is behavior I expect from a 2 yr old.  By 4 unless a child is intellectually slow it's reasonable to expect them to understand why it's important to stay with the group, come when called, not hide from parents/teachers, etc.  Is your son developmentally delayed?  [/b]

I think your attitude is wrong.

Most four year olds are active, and as you can see from THE REST OF HIS CLASS, all the OTHER four year olds manage to come when called.  The problem is your son, not the school. [/quote]

Agreed.

This isn't ok from a four year old, and, yes, staying indoors for recess was an appropriate consequence, given the trouble he caused the teachers.  It's not so much about a punishment as it is about keeping him safe.

You need to think about how to address his behavior as a parent, face facts that you have a difficult child, and apologize to the daycare staff you overreacted to.

Treat the daycare like an ally not an enemy here--get a meeting and talk about strategies. They have more experience with kids this age than you do.[/quote]
