"environment" not "genes". I don't think modern schooling has been around
long enough for natural selection to have modified genetic traits.... :)
The first thing I would ask is, is the behavior that different, or as Mike
suggested, is he getting in trouble at school for doing stuff that is ok to
do at home. It is much easier to be tolerant of "boisterous" behavior when
there is only one child, but multiplied by 30 and it becomes intolerable.
Any other words, is the school environment much stricter then the home?
Also, why my 1st grade son, he has trouble with letting other kids lead him
into trouble. At home, where there aren't these agitators, he is a pretty
good, if stubborn, kid. But many times at school he is let other kids talk
him into displaying unacceptable behavior. It's been a challenge to counter
this.

That depends... is he bullying other kids or just giving the teacher a
hard time?
My daughter has a teacher who cannot take much, and I have already been
to talk to her over what I consider normal stuff.

Let me direct this to anyone that knows anything about genetics
or has
kids. My son is a holy terror at school. At home, pretty good
kid for a
5 year old. Now my wife swears that him acting up in school is
because
it is "genetic" and her brothers, etc.. got in a lot of trouble
at
school. I myself do not think it has anything to do with genes.
What do
you think?
