"What will YOU do if you see a BOY stick his tongue out at YOU?"

It is Friday night and I am almost done teaching online. A naughty young boy is sticking out his tongue at me. Personally, it is fine that he can do such a thing. He is a kiddo and needs to enjoy his childhood of being naughty. But I am quite irritated. As a good performer in teaching kids online made me a clown. To cut it short, it will affect the total duration of the class. Without a second thought, I send this photo to our chatbox and he stopped.LOL "Do you feel irritated if someone sticks his tongue out at you?" "What can you suggest in dealing with kind of kid?"

The worst punishment for a child's immature behavior, is to 'ignore it.' They are seeking attention and when they don't get it, it bothers them terribly! Their manipulation to get noticed, has failed!

I agree. It was like a toddler that needs to be ignored in times of having tantrum episode.

@kobesbuddy I am pretty sure the child will stop whining about something.

@Shavkat My daughter would walk away and her child would wonder where the audience went.

If I see this kind of naughtiness during my class, I will scold him. Hats off to your patience.

If I am teaching in a classroom-type, I will do the same thing as yours. Online students are quite different in terms of treating them. As far as I could remember, one of the staff told me that "Students are like our god." A shocking statement, but I said, "I have my own God."

In fact, this photo shows a reverse psychology for the child to stop. It is not the right time to have fun. It is a class session and no games at this point.

That's irritating but it's also cute at the same time.

I do think it is cute, but it is not the right time for fun.

May be because this is something my mom could not stand, I feel irritated if a kid sticks out his/her tongue. Well done to send this photo.

In this kind of situation, my squeeze balls were so handy and effective to calm myself. Even my mom will not allow this. It is a shameful act of a child for parents to see.

@LadyDuck My parents are like yours. They really cannot let this rudeness pass. Sometimes I don't like comments or responses with all capitalized letters.

@Shavkat My mom even slapped the face of a kid who did this, this is something she could not stand. To be honest I feel offended when a user here use the "rasp" emoji. It is so childish and insulting.

How I wish I can do that. The audio-video class was recorded in the company's system.lol I don't want to be an issue being talked about in the company. I like the photo and hopefully, the student would not think badly about it.

I would have enjoyed this in normal conditions, but then as a teacher I will definitely don't appreciate as we need to keep the kids in discipline first to teach them!

I agree. Sometimes the parents' complaint is about not finishing the lesson. They were not that opened to such a situation that the problem is their child. For me, it reflects how he or she is being raised in his or her home.

@Shavkat , Yes, I can understand! Kids must be raised with discipline. They should be taught about the mannerisms and etiquette when they are young only! Parents play major role in upbringing of a child!

I think it's our responsibility to let their parents know, hope he did not learn it at home, maybe his mom sticks her tongue out too

That's the downside of this company. They don't have the system to reach out to their parents instantly. We just leave comments or suggestions. I hope the parents will teach them to behave. Too bad if their parents acted in this way, too.

@Mavic123456 I sometimes say this in a funny way. So that it will not result for complaint from this kid.

Because he doesn't want to study. A typical attitude for kids who are not into studying.

Oh, my! Here, it is not unheard of for an adult or a child to stick their tongue out at you. It is meant in a playful and teasing manner. I would have laughed and done the same back at him!

I think it would be a funny moment with the child. However, it would be embarrassing if the mother sees it.lol

I would just stick my tongue back, or do one of the many tongue tricks I can do, amuse them for a few seconds and then get back to work.

I think that would work if the parent is not looking at me, too.

I do think it is also a good option. Thanks for the suggestion.

Like the photo. It actually depends on the circumstance and where he is doing it. In an informal setting I might just stick my tongue out at him, lol.
