 Punishment
So my third grader came home the other day and tolds me that a couple boys were talking in class (not him) and everyone in the class was forced to march around the perimeter of the playground blacktop 3 times. (Mind you it was 102* with a heat index of about 115* that day!)
Then he comes home today and tells me that the same boys were talking and once again the entire class was forced to march today -- but only 1 lap.
We've only been in school for 1 week and I don't want to be labeled as a problem mom, but what do I do?????
My kid is not the one talking and if he was, would marching in the heat make a difference?
I volunteered today to get to know his teacher and she said he was so well behaved and very studious, unlike some others in the class.
If I wanted my kid in military school I would have sent him there.
What do I do????
