As a parent would you.....

As a parent would you want to be told right away? Or at the end of the month when it is time for parents to sign some things?

So there is a student that is either 4 or 5...and she is saying and doing some concerning things. Here are a few examples.....

1.)She says " I am going to put the baby in the oven."
2.) Uses a plastic saw to saw a student's arm.
3.) Mentions Megan the AI robot and Wednesday the series....and even knows about Chucky the doll
4.) Hits children with baby dolls and blames the doll

Now the teacher says that the parents already know but she never gets into detail as to what they know. Because I think the parents are just being told about her bad behavior in the classroom in regards to not following the rules and disrupting learning time. The teacher did mention to the parent how she opened the backdoor to classroom two times this week.....but what about the 4 things she mentioned that I listed?

I presented to the mom that her daughter says and do concerning things and mention Megan and Wednesday and the mom said to the teacher that her and I already spoke....the teacher said she didn't like what I did.

Well when were you going to inform the mom? If the little girl does something in school or at home to harm someone when we have clear signs that the girl needs help then they going to ask why weren't they informed about the 4 that is listed...

Do you have an educational psychologist that can observe the child?

@Patientlywaiting Apparently from what I heard is that there is a counselor available but something about paperwork or something is holding the counseling process. All I know is that the little girl behavior is trouble and the things she does and says is concerning. She over obsessed about blood for a 4 or 5 year old even a tiny drop. And now she has been opening the door without our permission. This is the 2nd time this week. The teacher informed the father and grandmother about the door but what about everything else I've mentioned?

@Patientlywaiting Oh and she disrupts the learning process also by kicking furniture and making noise. I don't think she even told the dad that....

@OpalFlower sounds like your little girl needs some help, maybe undiagnosed autism, sensory processing or a neurological problem. Traumatised kids with poor attachment are also pretty challenging at times too. (We adopted three of our foster kids, one is autistic and has foetal alcohol syndrome) Some things that might help her are a visual time table so she knows what will happen next, one to one support for learning and play, increased structured time during unstructured periods like the play ground so she can more easily regulate as well as somewhere quiet or offer ear defenders if it's a busy or noisy area. A book I really like to share with teachers is called "inside I'm hurting" by Louise Bomber. Good luck xx
