A story about a son who repeatedly engages in problem behavior at school and a mother who cannot lift her head because of it was revealed.
On the 2nd, the Channel A variety show "These days parenting – My kid who's like a jewel" featured a mother raising a second-year middle school daughter and a sixth-grade elementary school son, who appeared and poured out her worries.
That day the mother confessed, "He is so well known at school that there is no one who doesn't know him," and said she receives emergency calls from the homeroom teacher several times a day because of her son's problem behavior. She said, "My heart trembles whenever the phone rings," and revealed the urgent calls from teachers and apology text messages she sent to other parents, drawing sympathy.
The son continued problem behaviors inside and outside school, such as scribbling on a friend's clothes or stepping on a friend. After the child went to school, the mother watched a video sent by a teacher and finally broke down in tears. In the video, the son sat at the very back of the classroom during class playing games or using his cell phone, and showed no response to the teacher's reprimands. The mother immediately called the teacher and repeatedly apologized.
Watching this, Dr. Oh Eun-young analyzed the son's behavior as "a state of very strong impulsivity," and said, "He has a strong desire to be at the top of the hierarchy." She continued, "This behavior is repeated because of the desire to appear as a powerful, influential person."
The mother added to the shock by mentioning past conflicts with a teacher. She said, "It wasn't the homeroom teacher, but there was a teacher who had conflicts with the child," and said, "During the process of writing a Teacher's Day letter, my son said he would write a letter to that teacher." She went on to say, "I can't say all of the content, but it contained the sentence 'Don't live like that,'" which surprised the studio.
When the panel asked, "Did he actually deliver that letter?", the mother answered, "It seems friends told him to give it to the teacher. In the end it was delivered as is," which shocked everyone.
