My son has had a rough few days at nature school this week with impulse control and focus. He has been separated from the group a few times to try and calm his wiggles and lost privileges because of his behavior. Sometimes he just can’t sit, stay, listen, or complete a task. His brain just seems to override occasionally and I totally get it.
I thought I enrolled my child in a progressive school that practiced conscious discipline. Was I wrong?
I recently enrolled my son in preschool for the first time and today was his second day . He was very sad because he said one of the teachers did not give him a sticker. I asked the teacher and she mentioned that he did not want to participate in one of the language class activities so at the end the kids that participated got stickers and since he did not participate he did not get one. Now I am having doubts about this school and about the teachers being trained in conscious discipline. What do you recommend I do?
How do I get my 4 year old to do anything without consequences?
1. How do I get my 4 year old to do anything without consequences?
Such as “if you don’t clean up your toys they will go away, if you don’t put your shoes on you will not come to the birthday party” etc..
2. Regarding rewards, he is having a regression with using the toilet since I started potty training my little one, so I am offering him rewards for days he stays dry to encourage him to not pee his pants. Am I doing it all wrong?
