[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 576276, member: 11791"] I don't know how you "run" your life, but... We found out that whatever the "trigger" was, usually was NOT the problem. These kids - and even high-ADHD kids - need order. Predictability. Routine. Hunger, tired, too much sensory overload... these were common triggers. We learned to never plan an outing right after school, for example - it was a guaranteed problem, either major or minor. Regular bed-time, including a detailed transition time at the end of the day... the same, every single day, even if we were on a trip. Regular morning routine... even on weekends. When they were small, that meant WE didn't get to sleep in, either. (That part gets better... mine are teenagers now) [/QUOTE]
