[QUOTE="Night Owl Mama, post: 692838, member: 20490"] I think every raging tantrum he has ever had was due to one of the following: 1. Food (not having his preferred foods available) 2. Screen/media usage restrictions (i.e. You cant use xyz until you first do abc..) 3. Unexpected events such a cancellation of plans, being late, etc. 4. Sensory overload (noise, too many people talking) Still, he has the ability not to rage. These things have happened in other places and he kept his cool. And the rage and verbal cruelty that comes out at home is totally out of proportion to the situation. If he acted that way in public he'd be arrested. There is a part of me that thinks he almost needs to experience that to "get it". [/QUOTE]
