Too much to ask of an almost 4 year old that has been here for a year...
This is some examples from today and yesterday.....When reminded to ask before taking someone's toys he says "I don't have to...., When I say he does he refuses and ignores, then when I take the toy away and tell him he can't play with it if he can't ask his friend. He starts stomping off and screaming at me.
Outside - he takes a toys from another child, I ask him to give it back (After the other child tried and he wouldn't). He throws the toy across the yard. I tell him he needs to pick it up and give it back nicely. I get the toy and attempt to help him do this. He refuses and runs away with the toy. I get the toy back and he sits in time out. Which then he takes off his jacket and shoes and throws them and yells and screams.
Can't wash hands with other children without arguing. (I have two stools). Argues all day long with everyone. He has hit me in the past, scratched me, told me he was going to smack me in the face (didn't though) - these are all when he is angry. He is very impulsive with his actions and words. Is constantly in my business. I say all day long....***** does this concern you? These things and MANY more have been going on for a year now since he started. I suggested a few months ago that parents take him to see someone. They were going to and never did twice now. I'm thinking probation is the way to go unless this is normal behavior for this age and I'm in the wrong?? I feel like I'm just sooo over this child and he is making me hate my job. I do enjoy having him when we have a good day which is far and few between.
