Punishment later at home is not understood by the child. Some children become stuck for a while in a biting syndrome. We make every effort to extinguish the behavior quickly and balance our commitment to the family of the biting child with that of the other families. Only after we feel we have made every effort to make the program work for the child should the Center consider termination. All children are special.
All children have individual needs that require careful attention and flexible programming.
A child's behavior at the Center may be very different than in other settings. The behavior we are concerned about may be a function of the setting, the environment, staff behavior or expectations, routines or scheduling. The staff procedure below is designed to ensure that attributing the problem behavior to the child is the last resort. The child's approach to activities. Attention span and interest in activities.
