Preschool teachers understand that kids are coming from various backgrounds and levels of expectations, and the kids modify their behaviors once they manage to notice the norm - usually the FIRST day of school.<BR/><BR/>Lots of times, the kids who tryMouthy Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13390913450937641605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30851825.post-47977517020395576392008-08-11T20:50:00.000-04:002008-08-11T20:50:00.000-04:00My middle child is like that.

She is so independent and feisty!<BR/><BR/>Sorry I have no advise for you - just letting you know your not alone.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00634491849442118492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30851825.post-52180621764182615572008-08-11T02:29:00.000-04:002008-08-11T02:29:00.000-04:00Have you had her tested for attention deficit ?

He knows what is right and wrong, but doesn't have the vocabulary or maturity to act on it in the right way.

Paige is a lot like Moe.<BR/><BR/>She is smart, can already write her name, do some basic math, and has a wonderful vocabulary..... but when it comes to social skills like listening, sharing, and cooperation.... I'm a little worried too about her starting school this fall.<BR/><BR/>I think it might be normal for that age....exasperating, but normal.

A room full of peers cured him of many ills -things I considered to be more toddler behavior than preschooler. He was four in June. We're still working through it, but he rarely has trouble at school - which actually makes me wonder...but anyway, enjoy the time she is in school to recharge and take care of yourself.
