iwondered if some of you would help me out, basically its about my cousins little girl, she 3y 2m. i will try and describe best i can as to how she acts etc, my cousin is pulling her hair out and is crying out for help but for some reason is scared of going to g.p.
here are some facts about her dd
she didnt walk till she was 2y6m
at age 3y2m she doesnt speak in sentences at all, and babbles, doesnt make any sense at all
if her mum is talking on the phone, or chatting face to face with anyone she throws a really bad tantrum (very severe)
throws serious tantrums when out (throws herself on the floor)
the only understood words she says are swear words and she will shout them especially in front of other people or out shopping etc (god knows where she picked them up though)
very attention seeking, if not centre of attention she screams and shouts
it feels like you cant explain things to her, like when she kicked our grandparents dog we explained that it wasnt a nice thing to do, but she kept on doing it
when she in the company of my dd (11.5 mth) if anyone talks to my dd she screams, or hits my dd
i think my cousin knows there is something different about her daughter, but doesnt really want to admit it iykwim, its getting to the point that our grandparents dread her going to their house because her dd is so hardwork, and draining.
does anyone have any idea as to what could be causing this? i have no idea, but i know my cousin needs some sort of help with this.
thanks in advance
