Question

our 6 year old son is picking on a girl in his 1st grade class - any ideas for making him stop?

Answer 1

A good old fashioned *** whipping does wonders. Also, make him apologize to her directly.

Answer 2

I see that your question in allready answered, but I must say one thing. Violence is NOT the answer.

Answer 3

You should definitely talk about it. It's important to communicate and not just punish.



Sometimes it helps to ask him how he would feel if someone he loved were being picked on, rather then asking how he would feel if he were being picked on. I don't know why that is.

Answer 4

hes 6 nothings going to happen

Answer 5

put the fear of your rath in his heart, get the belt out, and use it if he doesnt stop, he will listen alot better for a while , then any time he starts his mess up again get the belt out and he will remember and calm down real fast, it works every time

Answer 6

Teach him the polite way to talk to girls and say your disappointed in him if he doesnt follow through. Instead of the usual BAD! like people do to animals.

Answer 7

talk to him tell him its not nice ask him how he would feal if she did that to him

Answer 8

If you tell him you know he's doing it because he has a crush on the girl and everyone's going to know about it if he keeps it up it may embarrass him enough to stop. But also, if you can get the girl to be friends with him he may not need to put on the act anymore.

Answer 9

It's absolutely noraml, and I don't think guys ever stop! But maybe tell him that she won't like him if he keeps on being mean to her.

Answer 10

My son is in the first grade and we went through this at the first of the year. Pulling her hair, stealing her papers (so she would chase him for them),calling her names ( so she would call them back and then the whole chasing thing again) just silly kid stuff. I talked to the teacher and so did the girls mom...because we all knew exactly what was behind the picking thing. The teacher gave us the simplest solution...get them to spend the day together outside of school. So one Saturday I picked Haley up and we went to the park, to McDonalds, the mall, and all the other errands i needed to run that day. Basically they became comfortable enough with each other that the teasing stopped they can actually just talk now. She knows him and his family and he knows that he doesn't have to tease her to get her attention just say HI...they are friends now.It worked wonders.



Before anyone jumps the gun NO it was not a date there were all my other kids too (and thats LOTS of kids) but a girl hanging out with a boys was different. but at that age they on't realize that there is a real difference its why they pick on each other to begin with. It was just an easy way to let them get to know each other without having to be mean to get attention.

Answer 11

Ask him why he is doing this, in a kind tone of voice, not angry judging. Help him be aware of her feelings and how his behavior makes her feel. Tell him a story that helps him imagine how it feels to be picked on. Stop the punnishment and negative reinforcement. Approach this from love and patience.

Answer 12

Try informally talking to him about it. ( e.g. "So, about that girl in your class, *****, what do you think about her? Do you think she's pretty?...)



Hope I help
