my son grew up with his group of friends in church who were all born within months of each other in 2002. 3, including the boy, are in the same class in primary 1 while the 4th is enrolled at another school.
he is particularly close to this girl - he used to chat in class & spend recess time with her. i'd even go on to say they'd be inseparable if the teachers didn't intervene. just today, the teacher smacked her with a ruler & she cried her heart out, a response i suspect to be a result of not ever been punished by her parents. now, she doesn't want to go to school for fear of another beating.
so i asked the boy, what if he gets punished by the teacher. i'll try not to be naughty in class, he replied.
what if the girl gets transferred out to another school & he loses his best friend, i tested him. this is what he has to say: it's ok because i still have to go to school.
i'd say he's got things under control, but it's still early days yet.
The rod and reproof give wisdom,
But a child who gets his own way brings shame to his mother.

Your boy is really cool! Usually boys are naughtier and crazier than girls.. but seems like it is just stereotyping.
Lynnx,
occasionally, he has his temper tantrums but generally, he is well-behaved.
