My child is 4 and a half. He is an only child. He has from a fairly early age always reacted strongly and physically to upsets and disagreements. He is like most children more likely to shout, scream etc when he is tired. Last night he was very tired and was completely out of control. This is unusual. However small day to day things like being asked to turn of the TV ( I always give him a reasonable warning and allow him to finish watching a programme if it is not too long) provoke aggressive outbursts. He is often loud and argumentative when we are out in public. I feel I have let him down and would like some help so that I can give him some positive and practical skills in situations which he finds difficult. Does anyone have any ideas which don't involve an extensive wait. I am able to pay for help. I do not expect an instant fix and am committed to working with my child. I live in West London.
