I am really starting to hate going into work now. We have this new boy with severe A.D.D. and he is very hard to control. He will not listen to a word I say and even resorted to barging and threatening me so he could do something. Needless to say, I turned it around on him and he never did what he promised. Work does not help the situation. They let him do what he wants even though all the rest of the children have to do it. ex: he didnt bring a coat so we got one for him to borrow and he didnt want to, so instead of missing recess, he got to play without a coat. Meanwhile all the rest of the kids wanted to take their coats off. Then he wanted to have lunch and wanted to go into the lunch room and eat without a teacher there to look after him. I had to tell him to stay with me til a teacher came because I had to watch 11 others and I could not stay with him. He threw a fit, and I had to hold him in my arms. No other teachers were offering help. Its hard to hold one kid while trying to keep 11 others in line. I think I will talk to my boss and tell her that I am uncomfortable working with this boy. I get nervous every time I have to be in class with him.
Pictures of our new house coming soon!
Oh man, sounds fun. Good luck talking to your boss. It sounds like maybe you're stuck with him because nobody else is willing to take him.
