This kid is notorious for becoming instantly remorseful of his bad behavior when he has to suffer consequences. He was being super spastic and I had had enough so I told him to leave the group and go put his head down at his table spot, after moving his name to yellow on our behavior chart.
kid(age4): Awwwwwww! But I don't want to mess around! I want to make good choices!
me: I want you to make good choices too but right now you need to have a time out.
kid: (crying mournfully) You broke my heart...........You just really really broke my heart!
I had to walk away from him because he wouldn't stop carrying on. I left him to another staff because I had to take my next group to our second room for the next round of activities.
20 minutes later when I returned to the main room to get my next group, he was still not over it.
He saw me and started wailing again: Aren't you SO SORRY about how you BROKE my HEART?!
