Hi - my dd1 is a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde at the moment (or perhaps the girl with the curl). Anyway - she has the most tremendous rages (once every couple of weeks), normally about something seemingly very innocuous - she will absolutely scream her head off, will try and hit (tho not hard, more for effect because she knows it's naughty, I think) - which will generally end up with her sobbing in her room.
She is generally a very sunny happy little thing - it really is as if someone hit a switch. There seems to be no prior warning, either, tho perhaps I'm missing the signs.
Atm I'm just trying to be very calm about it, tho I do tell her to go and stay in her room until she feels better. It's only directed at dp and me, or the grandparents, but never her little sis (3 years younger) - so I'm guessing that it's about not feeling in control, whereas little sis will annoy her but she'll just get "reasonably" cross, if that makes sense.
Afterwards she is very contrite and wants to be cuddled and told everything's OK again.
Does anyone have any advice or similar experiences?
