I was sort of surprised there was no "time out" consequence to his shoving. One of the comments I got from another parent with an older daughter is that, in her opinion, there is a cultural tendency here to let boys get away with a lot. I will definitely mention/ask about time out when I speak to the asst. director.
The other thing I thought of today after I posted was that I suspect there is a benefit to speaking now in that it starts building a paper trail. I'm not out to get this kid, but I would be really angry if I saw stuff, said nothing, and then down the road I was told "well, this is the first complaint we've ever had."
