[blparent] behavior problem solving

[Peggy]

No a Papa isn't the same as a Dad would be and you are in quite a situation 
where you set rules, your parents set rules, and it doesn't sound to me as 
if those always are the same rules.  On one hand this is your son and he 
should follow your rules because you are his mom but you live in your 
parent's house so they'll say follow their rules because this is their house 
... wow what a delima.  As I said in a previous message, if you need help 
finding resources to get out on your own e-mail me off list and I'll try to 
help.

    Peggy, the punishment should fit the crime. I guess I'm just unsure as
to how to dicifer what kind of punishment I should give for disrespect. Yes
some of it might be age related, but that just sounds like an exuse to me.
Plus, he doesn't have a dad. He has Papa and that's not the same.

What I would do is post a list of chores for him to do, whether you post it
per week or day or post one of the chores he's expected to do always, then
he knows what's expected of him, and before he can play or anything else
that chore needs to be done.  Also if my kids do something in school and get
punished there, they get punished at home too, whether that be grounding
from friends or T.V. or whatever.  I guess I talk a lot to my kids and I'd
just explain to him that he needs to start listening and following
dirrections or he's going to keep getting into trouble, good luck, some of
this is his age and this too shall pass.

Hi all. I have run into an issue with my son’s behavior in school. He came
home with a note from the principal today saying that he had a hard time
following directions, doing what he was told to do, and disrupting other
kids in the class from learning.





The teacher took him aside and explained to him that his behavior is
disrespectful.



Before I go any further, my son is 6 so he’s in first grade.



But come tomorrow, after lunch, he has to go to the detention hall. I do not
know what that is, but he deserves the punishment whether he likes it or
not.



My question for you is how do I rectify the behavior here at home. He has a
hard time listening to what he’s told to do, then doing it.



I had the idea of making a list of chores for my son to do here and making
it into a chart or something he can help make. I just want some ideas as to
what I could have him do.

Thanks for your help.
