I have a question regarding to my assignment:
- How would you listen and respond to a father who is concerned about his son: Father does not like that his son plays with girls at the center. He says his son is a 'real boy, we do not want him to be a weakling and give him a smack if he is naughty!'
- I'd Answer: Our center is coed, and we do not separate girls from boys while they are playing, also i can add: we didn't realize it would raise a concern.. but what else ??
- about smacking: A: - The centre policy states that we do not smack, hit, hurt children physically as a discipline method.... how can i tell him this on a professional way?? What else can i tell this parent? I should direct him to the director of the center to talk further about his issue?
Thx so much for helping!
