My daughter has entered K at age 5 1/2 and is fooling around behind the teacher's back, getting in trouble in the restroom, cafeteria, in the afterschool play group and everywhere else. She attended preschool for 3 years and never had problems this severe before. She says she is bored but that she likes the teacher. The teacher said my daughter will have lunch with the Principal from now on after she smeared catsup all over the lunch table with another girl. Unfortunately, the other girl alledgedly started it but my daughter is the only one going to the principal's for lunch. Are we headed for scapegoat territory here? The more important question is whether or not, given the severity of her behavior, whether she will ever settle down. We thought she had the social skills to make it, she's bright, and no preschool teacher ever signaled warnings of this kind of behavior. She is also hitting kids on the playground after school, can't settle in sitting next to certain others. Help!
