Hi, I am watching a foster child who goes to kindergarten. He has major behavior issues at school, and I'm at wits end as to an effective punishment when he misbehaves at school. I've talked to the teacher, developed a plan for how he is to be punished at school, you name it, she does it!
If he comes home and has had a bad day, I make him sit in his room and write in a notebook many times "I will behave at school" or something to that fact. If he's "good" at school, I try to reinforce this positively by allowing him to do things he likes when he gets home. My husband has even taken him out on the town the one day he came home without any warnings!
He knows what is right, what is expected of him, yet continues to do wrong at school. I do not know how to effectively deal with this situation to get him to stop misbehaving.
Unfortunately, I cannot spank him. Does anyone have any ideas of what I might do?
Thanks!
