She is 6. And for the past week or so been a pain in the arse over clothes, what fits, what doesnt.

Shes had three separate non clothes related strops this morning so is clearly having a bad day. Ive offered assistance with choosing clothes and after her snatching and throwing stuff around her room Ive left her to it.

Its been 1.5 hours so far of this.

I think this advice is overall sound:

Just ignoring tantrums doesn't sound like a good idea to me. Sometimes children need help dealing with their emotions, or there are causes for the tantrums, and they need to be addressed.
