[QUOTE="SRL, post: 400369, member: 701"] Hi Loulou, welcome to our forum. With the mental health history that you've described, I'm thinking it would be good to talk with her pediatrician about starting the evaluation process. There's a book that may be helpful to you called "[COLOR=black][FONT=Tahoma]What Your Explosive Child Is Trying to Tell You: Discovering the Pathway from Symptoms to Solutions" by Dr. Douglas Riley.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=black][FONT=Tahoma]As for bedtime, I'll tell you what I did when nothing else I tried was working. At bedtime I took my kiddo to the room, told him I was tired and going to bed, and that he could stay up until he was tired but that he needed to stay in the room and read or play quietly. Then I quietly shut the door and went into my room and shut my door as well. Junior stayed up for about 30 minutes playing quietly and then put himself to bed. By taking all the fight out of it it ended bedtime wars at our house for a good long while.[/FONT][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
