Not sure how to feel about this family situation.

My brother and his wife shared an incident report in our family Viber group about their 9yr old daughter being disruptive in class and possibly facing suspension. They seemed to find it amusing and the rest of the family joined in, but I personally didn’t see it that way. It felt more concerning than funny to me. So I muted the group.

From my perspective, she can sometimes be a bit of a challenging influence on my daughters. At the moment, my girls have chosen to exclude her from a game they’ve been playing because she hasn’t been following the rules. For now my girls just aren’t that interested in interacting with her

It seems that many parents think the school has the responsibility to discipline and teach respect and responsibility for the child's actions.
The fact that she is even being considered for suspension at 9 years old is a huge concern that needs to be corrected now before it's too late.
You should state your opinion on the group chat and then mute 😉

@Gusman I coached for 20 years and saw this first hand.
My wife is a teacher so she is still experiencing this first hand every day.

@Teslin So many children do not get the support they need from home. No wonder society is full of delinquents.
