I am really struggling with DD1 (4).
Her tantrums are epic. Hours long. Every day. She is getting increasingly aggressive with me, DH and DD2.
We tried not asking her to do anything for a few days and that eliminated the tantrums but she then just tried to get attention - peeing in her wellies, blocking the sink with toilet paper, trying to smash the glass partition doors. She also did not go to bed.
We've made an appointment with the GP at the end of the month. HV has offered a parenting course starting in Jan.
She is just so unpleasant to be with. If she goes to someone for a few hours/overnight (like Gran's) she is much worse upon her return.
Not really sure how much more I can take. I want to cry all the time. My body hurts from how tense I am all of the time. I'm waking around 3am and can't get back to sleep.
