[QUOTE="Mitchy, post: 385150"] I do the counting thing because it helps me feel calm. I'm bad at it because I'll say 1... you need to stop...2...if you don't stop this will happen....please stop now... just go to your room or outside or sit there quietly...you need to stop...3 and then my youngest will go from screaming and cursing to screaming, cursing, kicking, hitting things, breaking things, rolling on the floor, etc. I often find myself either trying to take him to his room or asking my eldest to carry him to his room. He continues the fit in there. I find that counting only works if he's in the mood to give in but sometimes it does help. I don't know what to recommend. It seems like you don't really want to ground him. Is that because you are against the idea or because it's not worth the trouble. I rarely ground mine because it always turns into day after day of temper tantrums that go for hours and hours at a time. [/QUOTE]
