Why do parents always have an excuse for their child? Sometimes I really just want to say "OK look your child was behaving like a brat so she got sat in time out, it isn't going to kill her but she needs to learn"....I have one that is hitting and it is bad. I have talked to the parents over and over. Mom said to me, "maybe she is just letting her presence be known".
I don't allow hitting or bullying and when it does begin, I try to put a stop to it right away. Mom just laughs it off. Just very frustrating sometimes....
