your welcome Juliexxx Mrs P has left the buildingxxxxx

Julie, could the swearing and unacceptable behaviour be because she is trying to impress the kids who bullied her in the playground and it is carrying over into her home life. Will she still chat about her school life? Does she have school friends round for tea/sleepover etc? if so how do they interact together? Often children who are badly behaved at home are angelic in school. Ann Glos

Hi this is a difficult situation that has no easy solution i,m afraid as we are in the middle of a similiar situation but with one of my sons, the swearing, lieing and stealing coppers from a jar we save them in. At school he is a perfect angel also. We try not to get into a arguement, explain what he is doing wrong, tell him the consequences of if he continues doing say the stealing when older. It is hard, had many tears but we keep going. My son does lack confidence/self esteem in himself which i believe contributes, like Ann said i think he swears, etc because he is trying to be like the older boys at school. He has been on the end of bullies(he is small for age , developmentally behind and one of triplets). Things have improved slowly he does now admit to lieing when we ask, says sorry but doesnt always act on his regrets but we put that down to him being behind. Just try and keep up the dialogue, reasure that they are loved and thats why you are trying to help them hope it helps a little, and that you feel you are not alone take care Star
