[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 255714, member: 1550"] I think your five year old is the normal one. Believe it or not, most young kids DON'T have lots of horrible tantrums. They may have a few, but not often and they stop pretty quickly. I raised five three year old and the only one who acted like yours was my autistic son--I'd say your son's behavior is atypical and I'd watch the three year old, especially his development. Are there any psychiatric problems on either side of your child's biological family tree? That can give you a good clue as to what MAY be transpiring. Any substance abuse? If it were my child, I'd at least take him for a screening of some sort. It won't tell you any surefire answers at his young age (unless it is very obvious, which is rare), and something more can crop up later, but maybe he needs interventions at a special school setting. I believe his behavior is over-the-top (and I've raised lots of kids...lol). Welcome here :) [/QUOTE]
