Dd is in year 2. She’s always been a bit on the dramatic side, but it seems to be more noticeable now. She can also get really hyper and struggles to calm down again. When she’s hyper she sometimes gets in trouble at school as she will do silly things without thinking them through. I’m not sure what to do with her because she knows all the rules and etiquette in theory, but she says she finds it hard to apply them when she’s over excited.
I’m just wondering what other children who were like this were like as they got older. What helped them to regulate themselves?
I often think Dd might be autistic - and school are beginning to agree with me.
