haha, yeah, probably!

When you first read the headline - rightly or wrongly, you automatically visualize the parents to be a certain 'type' - but the article says his father is a civil engineer which suggests the family are not as bad as you first think.

Exactly. I mean, it doesn't always have to be from the parents. The kid may be very 'lively' by himself. I mean, I'm an alive example lol

[Niamh.]

Yeah. point taken but 90% of the time it's cos their parents are rough. Probably in this case he's a spoilt brat who's never told off so thinks he can do whatever-the-**** he likes which is also the parents fault.

Yeah you're right. In 90% of the time, it's due to their family background but sometimes it can also be in their personality yet I'm sure he's a spoilt brat lol I'd rather have a son that is outgoing and lively than a too nice boring one.

He looks good on this pic, that little monster.

[Niamh.]

you can't call your kids boring lol!! I'd definately rather have "boring" kids than little brats!! I take it you have no kids yet?? Lets see if you feel the same when your the one having to deal with the little monsters lol

[pinkmichk]

oh how quick people are to make assumptions based on a story in a newspaper do any of you know the family/boy personally there could be numerous reasons why he has behaved like he has and arista its not down to new labour which is your standard answer to anything he could be lively some kids are he could have medical things like being on the autism spectrum that the paper have not known/said about none of us know his or his familys full background so we shouldnt be so quick to judge

[Niamh.]

Well, it's just a conversation PinkMichK and usually that is the case. Of course there are cases where it is a medical condition or something but 9 times out of 10 it's down to the parents.

[InOne]

I think he looks more like Grant.

[Crimson Dynamo]

In the old days he would have got a clip round the ear and sent home where he would have got a bare bottom skelping. The next day he would have been an angel.

Boys need discipline, not exclusion (due to the fear of blame if they tried to do their job)

Life under new labour and hand-wringing liberals who dream and legislate for the ideal world but live in the real one

How come his parents refused a special action plan to deal with his behaviour? It would get him back in school and on the right path, but instead they choose to act the victims.

I hope the parents are not going to "sue" for bloody money!!

Anyway yeah we dont know the full story but 9 times out of 10 it will be the parent's fault.. however he could have a medical condition, autism or something?

even if he does have a medical problem (which I doubt) Teachers shouldn't have to put up with being kicked and the other students shouldn't have to lose attention because the teachers have to spend all their time on him. If he does have a condition(which I doubt) the parents need to get him seen to before they can expect teachers to have him back in their classroom

Yeah that is true and more discipline needs to happen. Parents and teachers need to join forces and work together, rather than work against each other and so and so playing the victims and want "money" out of the problem..

Labour is the fault to everything according to him

[Enid]

Ridiculous. I hope the parents get a right bollocking for this. Taking a 4 year old out of education is unacceptable.

to be fair he should not be in education, he should be at home with his mum.

7 is the time to start education, not 4.

I disagree.

If he believes attacking two teachers is normal behaviour maybe he should not be with his parents, period.

A lot depends on people's definition of the word 'attacking'. From my experience of teachers today - what with everyone being very pc - many are often over-dramatic in their use of words like that. I know an incident of a child that tapped another child on the shoulder with the blunt end of a pencil to get their attention - and a teacher accused them of 'stabbing' the child. Things are not always as black and white as some teachers make out.

I realise issues can be over-dramatised. I'm just going by what was said in the article. What lengths does a 4 year old have to go to, to get expelled, though?!
