My 6 year old DD has been trying to control by screaming. When I try to comb her hair she screams in the morning, when she is told no she can't have something she screams very loudly . In fact it is screaming after screaming. The screams are very loud and can be heard from a distance outside the house. I have tried the naughty step but she then screams even more saying she is dying. She is really controlling and I feel that I have failed as a mother. I have tried rewards and they seem to work but the trouble is keeping on with it. However she behaves very differently when other people are around, even when her dad comes backs from work. She calls me names like a stupid mumy, silly mum but then goes to write apology letters as I tend to just stay quite when she is saying that.
I am just confused but its the screaming loudly that drives me nuts
