DS is 2.4. He is practically non verbal, we have started speech therapy so I am hoping for some improvement there but am not that sanguine about it as it appears I am already doing most of what she suggested. Still, I expect I could be doing it better. I will try.
But his tantrums! They are EPIC. I have had a lot of experience of dealing with tantrums as my oldest DS was an expert. I got very used to leaving toddler groups with a stropping child over my shoulder. But I am too old to cope with this now! I think I know the best way to handle them but my heart sinks at the thought of coping with six months of this, it just makes me weary. Today we have had a massive one about my leaving him with his Dad to go and get a bit of sleep, one over my refusal to let him climb in the sink with the washing up, one over my refusal to give him another cake and it is only 12!
Anyone else similarly suffering?

The tantrums are really getting me down.
