I thought JT would have more trouble adjusting to DB going to school than anybody. Turns out, DB is really struggling. In his first week he was one warning away from going to the principal's office which is VERY out of character for him. Since that troublesome day he has gotten better though, after a stern talking to by his parents. He was proud to report that he was on purple today again for the THIRD day in a row. The color scheme goes purple, green, yellow, orange then red. Purple is the school color for those of you wondering at the randomness of the color code. Then he was written up for not wearing a belt! We had a late morning, and I just forgot to remind him to put his belt on. My bad. Now we know just exactly how strict the new dress code is. Polo shirt, dress pants and a BELT! But most importantly, when he gets home from school he is a BEAR. He is mean, sassy and obnoxious. The kid has spent more time in his bedroom after school than the entire summer combined. He is extra rough with JT, whose patience is pretty good considering he is happy to see his brother after a whole day with boring mommy. I don't know what to do. I am giving him until September before drastic measures are taken. What those drastic measures are, I don't know.

Is he getting along with kids in the classroom?
I think observing in the classroom is a good idea. I had to do this with Katelyn last year and it turned out her teacher was good, but would bark out orders like a drill sargeant (just her style) and Kate would totally tune out because she was overwhelmed. We struggled the whole year.
Maybe something like this is going on.
Other ideas...is he eating well? Sleeping well?
