time out

I have mentioned that the baby is now in school. They go for an hour and a half, four times a week. I don't stick around after I take them there to maximize their learning. Besides, the baby does not really care if I'm there or not. In fact, it's better if I leave so he won't get distracted.

He is classmates with his cousin. Last Friday the teacher told my nephew that she hopes there won't be any time out next week. So I asked why and she said the nephew does not listen to instructions and that the baby follows him. Apparently, both of them were sent out of the classroom for a five minute time out. The nephew had to be forced to go out because he didn't want to.

On the way home, I chastised both kids and the nephew said sorry to me. The baby didn't bother to comment and acted as if nothing happened. He is the follower and his cousin is the leader and to think he is the younger kid. Whatever.

I know it's normal for boys to be unruly but I do hope this won't happen again.
