[QUOTE="SaraT, post: 126946, member: 2270"] Thinking back to that age, I must say you have more patience then I. But I think you did the right thing. With mood disorder children(and I have had to learn this) it is sometimes better to let them wear themselves out. Just keep them safe and let them have their tantrum. No good will come from disciplining them in that state anyway.(in my humble opinion). Once she is calm then try to talk to her. I always tried to explain that there are consequences for actions, and try to help difficult child see a different possible action/solution. I am no expert, and still struggle with difficult child's mood swings/cycling. I don't have any hospital advise, never had to go that route. Take a minute to calm yourself(if needed) and remember, sometimes there is nothing you can do other then keep them safe. [/QUOTE]
