Re: 6 year old boy with problems at school

Hello

I don't have any boys but my daughter has a boy in her class who sounds like your son, he is just 8yrs. I find him lovely but I know he is hard work for his Mum, he has a younger brother also. Have you tried completely ignoring him when he is like this, is his brother better behaved and therefore are you sub-conscientiously giving him more attention, just a few ideas as his Mum says what he is like to me, I am no expert. Her boy deep down is a lovely boy but big built, very sporty and be very boisterous and hurt people without realising it, also, she has admitted this, her husband is very strict but thinks boys should be boys and she isn't so strict but isn't bothered if he wants to play with the girls, for example, mixed messages Sorry, probably rubbish advice, good luck though!!!!
