Is this normal?
When our 5 year old boy tantrums, these tantrums often involve him threatening to hurt himself (and sometimes other people). Today's one was "I'm going to throw myself down the stairs" and "I'm going to strangle myself"
The thing is that he has a twin sister who has never had this kind of reaction to things.
Is this something we should be worried about and involving the doctor?
