I had a parent who's child had a meltdown in my driveway because I didn't put a sticker on his daily sheet that day - wouldn't you know the very next day she bought a pack of stickers to keep in her car for him. REALLY? How about just telling your child no, that you can't expect something every single day, when you get one its a treat?? Now I just stopped doing it entirely.
omg. that is just ridiculous about the stickers. I am 31 and I still say "parents today..." ha ha. I think I was born in the wrong generation. If my kid misbehaves at school, which she has done, I am ALL over that situation and making sure that the teacher knows we support the teacher and misbehavior from my kid will not be tolerated.
