My 7 yr old son is always getting notes sent home that he talks too much fools around too much and doesn't listen. I've tried taking away TV for the night or the computer for a week, Video games are gone for good. He still doesn't stop talking or listen when he's told to do something or stop doing something. He's broke and crushed all his crayons, he's doodled on his worksheets. He can do the work he just would rather talk and not do what he's told. He's not that bad at home but I do see him getting worse than he was. It's at the point where he comes home and goes straight to his room. Am I being too strict? I've tried to talk things out with him and he knows exactly what he did wrong and why it was wrong but when the "why did you do it" question is asked the answer is always "I don't know". It's getting to the point where I'm missing out on doing stuff with my only son because he's always punished. What should I do?
