hi,
has anyone got any information about spitting, i have a child who is spitting at the setting, i have not come across this before and would appriciate any ideas or practicies into dealing with a child who spits.
Depending on the age of the child you could try explaining that spitting spreads germs the same way as coughing and sneezing does. Again depending on the age of the child i'd make him help clean it up. If all this doesn't work perhaps a spell on the thinking chair or time out from the activity he's doing. Also check with parents if he's doing it at home.
