My daughter’s bad temper

5 June 2008 2 Comments

My daughter was once again removed from the Ballet class because of her bad temper. It is the second time this happens, the first time was two months ago and today it happened again.

She loves Ballet classes but, sometimes, she doesn’t want to do what the teacher says and really refused to do it. When the teacher calls her attention and says that she has to do what the others are doing and not what she wants she gets into her bad mood and makes a tantrum. Once she refused to do what the teacher requested she was sent away from class because, and I understand, if she doesn’t want to do things right why is she in class.

I really don’t know how to handle this situation because she really loves Ballet. I had a conversation with her when we arrived home and I told her if she wants to attend Ballet classes she has to follow the teacher’s instructions. I don’t think this is going to solve the problem because at school the teacher has the same problem with her.

She’s 4 so I hope with time, she will get it but believe me she really has bad temper from time to time.

Suggestions will be appreciated.

This is my opinion only! She may be “telling’ you by her actions that she’s not ready for dance class yet. She may love Ballet but not being in a class that is so structured.

Have you asked the teacher what she thinks? She has most likely handled this problem before.

You’re a loving mom and you’ll do the right thing, just follow your instincts

Thanks for your opinion, in fact I followed your advice.
Yesterday I had a conversation with her supervisor at daycare and she told me that they ask her if she wants to go to class, she says yes, she even cries if teacher says if she’s tired it’s better not entering in class. But when she is inside the room and the class starts she, sometimes, don’t want to do anything and just sits there making her point. The classes are almost over because summer holidays are almost here so in September I will see if she really wants to continue with Ballet.
