Will You Adults Stop Your Whining and Just Manage Children’s Behaviour Properly!
I can feel a super rant coming on… A little boy’s just started in my class and his behaviour in school is totally dreadful! He’s been allowed to behave like this for years and he’s just had his 8th birthday. Its astounding! Perhaps I shouldn’t be shocked – I deal with cases like this time after time.

The Problem Is The Adults, Not The Kids…!!
I’m joking, right? I’m saying that they kids that behave so badly that they’re kicked out of school aren’t the problem? That’s exactly what I’m saying. I work with them every day and they aren’t a problem… Hard to believe? Well, it’s true. ... Read More
