My preschooler likes to play on the playground at his school after school lets out. Almost all his classmates do as well. There is one boy who is a bit aggressive. I've been fielding this issue by physically stepping between the child and my son, just so he can't run and knock him over without running into me. I'm friendly to the child. Yesterday, he jumped on top of my son, who was on a swing on his tummy, and scratched his back while I was on my way over.
While I take responsibility for not being there, I'm also very irritated that this child's parents have never once stepped in while he's being aggressive to my son. Yesterday I just left because I couldn't deal, which isn't fair to my preschooler. I'm kind of at a loss here. |

Have you tried speaking to the other child's parents about his behavior?

Yes I have, and the other parents don't want their children playing with this child either. Neither of the children's parents this his behavior is a problem.

How old are the children? 4 year old or younger preschoolers?
My son for the last two years has had an aggressive child follow him and try to harm him after school. I believe the other child,who is older than mine, has some behavioral issues anyway. In order to solve the problem I had to tell my son he's not to fight or wrestle with anyone, tell the other children directly while making eye contact that my child is not allowed to fight, and bring it up with all the other parents. These things only helped sometimes and for short period of times. Finally my son came home with bruises on his neck and I told him to punch anyone who touches him in the face. Sure enough he punched the other child and told him "my mom said to do that". So not way I originally wanted it handled, but it did fix the issue for the biggest part. |

I'd talk to the teacher or principal since it's happening at the school playground and they'll deal with it.

The child is 4. All of them are, actually. It's a pre-Kingergaren class, not a preschool one with younger kids.

I always stepped in with this kind of situation. You're the mama bear, right? I think children learn from our actions, so it would be good to talk with him about it when and after it happens. You want him to feel safe and protected by you, right? If the "brat's" parents aren't doing anything, shame on them! You have every right to step in and say something, IMHO anyway.
