AUTHOR: thwarted
Thank you both for replying. Today is his first day back and things went better. I asked the teacher to permanently separate the two and she agreed she would. I told her that I have spoken to my son and he understands that if she comes near him he is to go and tell the teacher. I know the teacher is fed up with the tattling thing because she has told me that all the children in her class this year seem to be tattling all the time. I told her that he has been instructed to tattle and that if he does and the teacher does not take the appropriate measures and she gets bit again or worse that I am not going to apologize for his behavior when he did the right thing in telling the adult and nothing was done about it. I also said that if the behavior of this little girl continues that I will call a meeting with her parents and let them know where I stand. I do not like confrontation because I have a very short temper and dont take well to parents who dont disclipline thier children or just dismiss bad behavior. I will take him out of the program if I have to. I tell myself that I am not being over protective and that in my son's lifetime he will have to deal with people whe arent going to be nice to him, but at this point he is only four years old for god's sake and shouldnt have to be dealing with it. I tell him not to socialize with people who arent nice to him but I think he just wants to be liked by everyone. Thanks again,
Kelly
