Amy,

Where are all parents to answer your question? I'm not one but I'll give you my best aunt advise. Here it goes: teachers need parental reinforcement...not necessarily by giving kids another punishment when they get home but by talking over what happened and what was wrong about what she did to earn the head-on-her-desk punishment. Remorse is what you're looking for here as parent. Growing up is a learning process, time-outs are just one way kids learn control over their emotions.

I think talking with her and making her understand cwertain things are not acceptable in school, and she has to follow the rules, and some time outs will happen, next time if it happens is thing you can try. though my kido was getting into trouble all 2nd grade, but in 3rd grade his teachers r wonderful and he also listens to me, so things r not bad. cause I m of opinion that they r kids, some small things they do might get them into trouble, so they r ok,

last whole year my kido wasn't allowed to watch cartoons, and he was ok with punishment.

sorry blabbered on, follow aunt jean's advice

Thanks Jean and Asha,

My hubby and I were having parental opinion differences. I think kiddo need boundaries. We told her once, that it was okay if she had to put her head down. Until it happened 2 times in one week. Now it is not okay, and she hasn't gotton introuble yet at school this week.

Thank goodness.
