The great thing about dealing with misbehaviour in little kids is that a) they’re generally poor liars, b) they’ll grass on their co-offenders in a heartbeat to save themselves, c) they believe you when you tell them that you know everything that happened and just need to see if they will tell the whole truth.

Once they get past about 12 though, then it gets tough and that’s why I only teach 5-11 year olds. They’re generally well behaved, they care about what you think of them and they really don’t want their parents called in - there are exceptions and the really bad behaviour in young kids, although very rare, can be truly awful.
