DD1 has just turned 12 & is having problems with anger.
This mainly happens at home,she says she doesn't get angry at school?!
The anger is short & sharp,but we are getting concerned that as she gets older it may escalate.Her friends are aware that she has anger issues too.
When she calms down & is able to talk,she gets upset & says she doesn't know what triggers it off & cannot deal with it.We have tried a few things like taking deep breaths,counting to ten etc but these do not help.
After a bad anger outburst last night we agreed to contact pastoral care at school to see if they could get her on an anger management programme.
Have any of you been involved with this,particularly parents with pre-teen daughters & did it help?
