I've walked through the door at 5.15 after a very long at work.

As soon as I walked through the door, the nanny who helps me said oh thank god you are home, DD who has ADHD had grabbed a knife again and threatened to use it. She had also strangled DS.

The tantrum then carried on for at least an hour after that. With her bawling.

I text the nanny saying I was really sorry but she hasn't replied. Dd also text her saying sorry,

I'm at the end of my tether I don't know what to do, if the nanny resigns I'm buggered.

{{{hugs}}} Thanks and Wine for you, OP

does she take meds at all? this might come up tomorrow at the meeting

No she doesn't, that's an issue as I can't actually get them into her and I only want to do it as a last resort.

ok, so that's 2 separate issues that some people might try to lump together.

how does she sleep?

and any idea what her trigger was today?

DD, 6 (ASD) is very 'skitty' right now, the change of teacher etc has not been handled very well for her

She doesn't sleep well at all, she sleeps through but takes ages to settle.

I don't know what triggered it, the nanny said she was being rude the minute she came out of school. I think it's svho related for sure. She really struggles.
