Hi,
I just wondered if anyone has any advice or been through similar. Recently my little ones pre school picked up on the fact that she can get really cross and worked up about things that don’t go their way, or just whatever upsets a 4 year old! She started to improve there, and it got a lot better, anyway fast forward to sept and starting school, and it’s all started again. She’s getting really worked up over certain things, getting really cross and upset, quite prepared to have a full scale tantrum at school. The teachers have been great and said they’ll try and work at it and expressing feelings, I’ve had chats about it being ok to be upset etc.
She has improved, ie she can calm herself quite quickly now, but can still have one. I’m quite an anxious person and it’s just getting me down a bit, as I don’t want her to be seen as this handful, she’s really quite sweet. She doesn’t do it much at home which is why I find it quite tricky to handle.
Tiredness is a major trigger, and maybe just the environment is contributing too but she’s getting a full nights sleep etc. Lots of people I’ve spoken to have said it is normal; i guess I just wondered if anyone has been through similar and whether it improved the older they got/more used to school they get? Thank you in advance :)
