Even I agree with the above comment, your child does not require a shadow teacher. A shadow teacher is extremely helpful to those whom the teacher is not able to understand properly. Mostly a shadow teacher is required by students who need help and have learning disability. Yes a shadow teacher is not required by your child and as he has no such disabilities and is perfectly fine. You can also tell the teacher by meeting her at the school that he is a bit over-active and hence tends to be excited for everything and these things will be brought under control.

Hi, it is seen that when a child breaks his toy during his tantrums, he might blame you for it and you might defend yourself by saying that you did not do it. You might feel that the toy he broke was because of the child’s mistake. It is important that you try to motivate the child to have a sense of forgiveness and hope. Try to discuss and tell the child when he is calm that not everybody gets a second chance in life and he should have a sense of forgiving people. Also tell him that good behaviour will keep him more happier and keep others happy as well.

Hello all, if your child has a habit of nail biting frequently and if you want to get rid of that habit you have to go slow. Being rough and *** your child is not going to work, in spite it will make him more nervous and scared leading to the increase in the habit. Do not punish or nag your child, he might be doing it unknowingly and may not be knowing it also. If he or she does not even know what they are doing then punishing and nagging are pretty useless things. These are habit which will gradually go.
It seems like tuition and coaching classes have become more like a fashion statement. Everybody is sending the kids to some classes or the other. Education has become commercialized. I do not want to send my kids to tuition as I feel that I can help them in their studies. Am I doing the right thing? My friend says that my kids might be missing out the good things. Am confused, need parenting tips. Read More...
Now-a-days all the schools and the education system has stepped up their levels academically. They have a good staff of teachers who are well educated and trained properly to teach children in school. All the teachers today are helpful enough to help the children if they are facing any kind of difficulty academically or personally. I personally think that if teachers are so helpful and if children are studying properly in the school then there is no requirement of tuitions to add up load on them. I feel these tuitions are just a waste of time and instead the child can repeat at home whatever he learnt in the school that day.
