[QUOTE="givnmegryhr, post: 27075, member: 2113"] I have 3 children that do the hysterical crying thing. Only one has been diagnosis'd with BiPolar (BP),adhd,odd. He gets angry more than he cries,but it does happen occassionally and we still go through the I'm cold thing after his shower. It cycles depending on his mood. Sometimes he can dry and dress himself and others no way. I try to tell him he is a big boy and he can do it,but sometimes that doesn't work. He insists I wait in the next room . He was making us take him to the bathroom and that comes back and goes away too. With 4 kids I know what you mean with not being able to give him more time, although my difficult child demands it. Luckily, I guess, he is the youngest. My girls do the hysterical crying thing too . My younger daughter does this alot when she is really tired. There is nothing you can do,but take her to her room and lie her in bed. She might fight it but talking to her quietly ,staying calm, not giving a reaction seems to work the best. I heard something the other day, forget where,but it really struck home. It said, you can't change how our kids behave, but you can change how you react. I would suggest getting up a bit earlier, even to give you some time to yourself before the kids get up. Then too , you will have extra time to deal with difficult child. I hope this helps. Good luck, I know it's hard to keep your feelings in control . I'm still working on it myself! [/QUOTE]
