My dd, ages 6.5 has just had the most dreadful tantrum. She didn't like her outfit for the day (the rest of her stuff is packed ready for our holiday). I don't mean that she shouted, she screamed and screamed for over a half hour. She has been doing this at least once a day all this week, and I have got to the end of my tether. She was exactly the same last summer holiday when she went out of her way to ruin almost every outing and trip that we had planned, as well as our 2 weeks in Turkey.
I realise that she might be bored with there being no school (she is a bright child), but we have trips to the park, indoor play areas, we do baking and making things, I take the swimming. And nothing is to her liking and she has a huge shouting match. To be blunt her behaviour is b*** awful and I don't want to be in the same room as her at the moment.
