My 6 years old DD has always been a bad sleeper and early riser. We have always tried everything to help her rest not giving in to her demands that early we have always had meltdowns. However it’s got increasingly worse recently. She is now shouting and screaming at us first thing in the morning. She is a big girl and very loud. If we say no to anything. She often will come into us at anytime from 2 am and hide behind the curtains we will then ask quietly come into bed. She will then react scream and shout. We will try to keep her calm and quiet and she will eventually get into bed. Sometimes not go back to sleep then ask for her iPad or tv. We have tried taking her back to her own room with books. But she will then shout even more. Our neighbours have complained. She gets physical and spits. We have told therapist and therapeutic parenting. We are struggling with her controlling behaviour. I have tied reward charts quietly talking and listening. However now at 5 am I am at a loss of what to do to help this behaviour any tips
Any advice please. Have you had this and what worked for you
