- Crone: I honour you for your sensible, compassionate and consistent parenting. I only wish there were many others like you. It sounds like your son is really TRYING to do the right thing, but something's a bit out of whack. A simple, common suggestion would be that your son is affected by high-energy attention deficit syndrome, and prescribe a stimulant, such as Ritalin. I DETEST a wholesale approach to the behaviour of young children in a new environment. But I know of cases (including myself) where it has helped focus, to be less "all over the place." He may be an unusually bright child who is BORED. Ask your physician about that, too. Perhaps he simply needs more challenge or stimulation. Maybe he's having problems learning to read? Sometimes, not being able to read makes a child to act "goofy". It's important to remember that some very bright people have problems with dyslexia. (I know a man who was literally a "rocket scientist", who had been written off as a dummy until he learned to read, in the Navy!) Generally speaking, boys tend to be more active and less self-controlled than girls at the same age. And that's just the way people are, whether we like it or not. You sound like a kind and competent parent. Just keep in touch with the teachers, and your family doctor as needed, and carry on as you've been doing. You deserve much praise.
- April R: Sounds to me like your son likes the attention he is getting from you guys. He is communicating through his behavior. He is saying that he would like more quality time with you guys. I read everything you were saying and the routine sounds great but I didn't see you mention the time that you spend with him. I can tell that you love your son and that he is a very healthy boy. I think that if you guys play some board games or do what he likes for a least 30 min or so a day you will notice a change. Good luck and keep doing what you’re doing.
- Jay C: i would recommend you get him checked out for attention deficit disorder,as i used to have it,i eventually outgrew it,but if he has then it could continue up until his teens.the only reason why i recommend you get him checked out is because this is what i used to do when i was younger.
- Paul M: make him behave at home
- George: Give him a good hiding. That method has worked for centuries
- Caz: you need to explain to the teachers that there isnt much you can do and try and have a behaviour plan in school that reflects the one at home where possible
- rennicke: he nay be over bright and bored at school maybe the work isn't stimulating him enough so he acts the clown then again he may have an illness like adhd i would get him checked out do the teachers at school complain about his work is he doing well in class having said that he is only five and he doesn't realise yet that education is important try maybe saying to him if you are good in school today we can go on a special trip this week end and then if he behaves badly the next day the threat of the trip being cancelled may inspire him to behave at school get him eye q you can get it in liquid form or chewy tablets and see what that does it may help failing that talk to your Doctor and see if he can help

How Do I Get My 5 Year Old To Behave At School?

Written on February 28, 2010 – 4:37 pm by admin

My son is 5, and as most are, very energetic. He gets plenty of walks and exercise.
At home, my husband and I find we have to stick to a firm routine, nothing nasty, just making sure he sits to finish his dinner, picks up toys etc and we have a “removal of toys” policy for naughty behaviour. We still give him plenty of cuddles, have a routine of breakfast, get ready, school, he goes to school dinners, bring him home, dinner, read his school book, talk about his school day etc. If he has been very bad, he gets an early night. At the weekends, we go for walks and let him loose on the hills and beach etc, visit nannas and such like. He gets time to play with toys by himself, as I believe it is important that children have time to learn to enjoy their own company as well as that of parents or friends.
At the minute, we are being told by school that he is not concentrating and is disrupting class by acting the class clown and not sitting still.
At home he behaves because we make sure of it, but I am aware that the teacher does not have the luxury of being able to concentrate on him. When this all kicked off, we took away his toys, implemented a reward chart, and when even then things did not get better, we have banned him from watching TV (he watches 2 cartoons a night). At home he seems full of remorse and promises to be good, but we are lucky if he behaves twice a week at school despite this.
We praise him if he does behave, telling him how proud we are etc.
I am at my wits end, can you help? How can we discipline him when we am not with him? Why is the routine at home not sinking in, so that he will follow it as school? I have told him time and time again the importance of listening to the teacher and enforced any discipline I have threatened if he does not. I have even tried telling him that if he behaves for so many days he will get to watch a favourite dvd, or have some of his toys back etc. I fully admit that he does not concentrate well, I even tried those chewable omega tablets, but they do not seem to have any effect on him!
Can anyone give me any tips for him? I realise his routine at home may sound regimented at home, but he is a very happy boy at home, and we feel he needs this routine to set a president.
