I have had enough. Dd2 tantrums like a baby, with screaming, hitting, slamming doors, fights with her sister. Its every day and I am at the end of my wick. Today Dd1, 8, (who has ADHD) threaten to stab Dd2, because Dd2 was beating her up. We have tried reward charts, naughty step, separating them, nothing work.
We went to our caravan on friday and I had to pull over on the dualcarriage way (in a bay thing) as Dd2 was tantruming so much it was dangerous. I took her out of the car and sat her on the grass and wouldn't drive until she calmed down, but she was kicking and hitting for ages.
I have had enough of both DDs, the contant fighting, screaming and totally disregard for everyone else in the house.
Dh has said to get a police officer round to show them what will happen to them if they carry on like this as an adult.
DD1 has ADHD and I think DD2 copys her behaviour even though we have told her that DD1's behaviour isn't normal. At school Dd2 is a quiet, sentive member of the class, she is like 2 different people.
I sometimes just want to get in my car and drive away.

How the hell do you deal with a 7 year old that tantrums like a 2 year old?
