Just one thought, it may not be him. My daughter was at a daycare where she did great. We moved and the next place said she was "the worst behaved child". I found another one and she is back to doing great.
How do you feel about the people at his daycare. I got a negative vibe from most of the people at my daughters second daycare, but the facilities were so awesome, with swimming pool and many playgrounds. I second guessed myself until I had a long talk with them and realized my instincts were correct. Now she is doing well at a place where I really like the teachers.

It does no good to spank a 5 year old for something that happened earlier in the day. What do you mean by "acts bad"? Is he hitting other kids? Mouthing off to the adults? Those are things that need to be addressed at the time they are happening.
Have the staff asked you to do something about his behavior? do they have any suggestions?

i have read so many articles about spanking kids...it's a common initial reaction for parents in disciplining their children and to show who's in control. I've personlly done that for so many times with my kid. Looking back, its thesame disciplinary action that my parents did when i was younger. does it mean they're correct? No!
Spanking hurts the child but only for that moment! If they know what's right and wrong they would have behave in a right way. Obviously they don't know yet what they're doing. Hurting them will NOT make them think that "hey that hurts, ok next time i will behave." Instead will leave them feeling that they're always being hurt. Unfortuntely our minds are set to remember extreme cases. If we're soooo happy that stays in our minds and if we're sooo sad or hurt that also stays in our mind but no reasons why. Would you want your child to have bad memories of you?
Try talking to your child, punish him in another way like letting him stand in a corner, deprive him of the toy that he really likes for a moment, resort to other punishment other than spanking. Or make a reward system!
Never stop looking for solutions and seek help from God, He really works in mysterious ways.

Have you asked your 5 year old if something is going on at day care? Maybe he/she is trying to tell you something. If you have had him/her in the day care for awhile and he/she has all of a sudden acted out maybe there is a new kid that bothers them. If this is a new day care he/she may be testing to see what he/she can get by with. At 5 you should be able to talk to the child, maybe its not an active enough place for him/her.Good luck!

the problem with spanking is that like with a dog...it only works when catching right there in the act of being bad...if you let hours go by...a child can barely remember the situation...
but here is what we do with our lil guy when w hear he has done soemthing bad...the naughty room...
clear a small closet out with enough room to put the child in it...
take them there...show them the space, and tell them that the next time you hear they have been bad, they will spend a minute in there for every year of their age...
and if you do end up using the naughty room...do not let the child react in there, no screaming or opening the door...you let them know that they will spend the rest of their life in there if they dont do it right...that ought to get 'em going...

Why don't you try a good behavior chart. Award good behavior with little treats or something special to them, and any misbehavior, stay calm and take away a privilege, like TV, or gamecube, etc...... After all, they chose to brake the rules, therefore it was their choice to lose their priviledge.
This worked really well with my twin boys. They soon learned that it works out really good for them to behave themselves and that life isn't any fun when they can't do what they want.

perchance she subconsciously thinks she is being replaced and which you will depart her there completely? or perchance she thinks that in case you depart her there, you will flow and function the infant without which contains her? perchance now could be a sturdy time to purchase a particular infant doll that she will relate to. you are able to start up coaching her approximately how issues would be after the infant comes and how she will play a considerable area in assisting to look after the infant. provide her the doll and help her to "prepare" a thank you to maintain the infant heat or a thank you to help in giving it a shower, etc. she will save the particular doll along with her whilst she visits. and then in case you depart them the two there mutually she will have the skill to no longer be so reluctant to stay. If she feels she's in touch with the finished technique, perchance she will have the skill to sense greater look after. some hospitals furnish instructions for siblings whilst it comes closer to the time of infant brother/sister's arrival. verify along with your community well-being facility. sturdy success!

spanking is cruel and unusal punishment for children. YOur supposed to hit them with an ugly stick to really straighten them out.
