Cannot believe the stupidity and thoughtlessness of some people. LO has always been violent at home. We have had some success with NVR, but whenever things get tough, LO will revert back to aggression on a massive scale.
School let kids get away with murder, the tone among the pupils is absolutely vile, but it is ok because they think kids need to work out for themselves how to treat each other. They call it "letting them explore conflict resolution". Of course bullying is rife.
Now they have come up with a solution. They have introduced teaching physical self-defence - and there I was wondering why LO had added fierce karate chops to her endless repertoire of now much more targeted, faster and more dangerous attacks.
I despair, how about teaching kids that horrible behaviour is unacceptable in the first place? Not make it ok and then add to the toxic mix by adding violence? I guess that would take too much effort. Just so ridiculous.
