That's a pretty major change I would say - especially on top of another unusual activity. So I guess no-on can really blame Kai for this one... personally I would have always loved for PE to be cancelled, but I know my little girl wouldn't! Funny how we're all different, eh?!Stephs Two Girlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09592292485187553690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4687526100634149438.post-46075754756658111772012-03-10T12:04:09.402-06:002012-03-10T12:04:09.402-06:00He sometimes does try to bite or hit the staff, bu...He sometimes does try to bite or hit the staff, but almost never is aggressive toward other kids, which we are very thankful for.

He had found a way to vent that is relatively benign. He will outgrow his chewing and learn to moderate his emotions. He is a passionate child who feels deeply. Channel that into a positive drive and he will really excel in the area of his choosing. He has an abundance of energy...that is a good thing. Of course...his shirts wouldn't agree :)Shiroi Torahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05869506932268171410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4687526100634149438.post-855403188514817792012-03-09T21:13:37.879-06:002012-03-09T21:13:37.879-06:00Yeah, I think pickles would have helped! :)
