[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 572200, member: 11791"] Ummm... you said... "and then it was 4:00". Hmmm... in our house? I'd have met the rage with food. Literally. If he hasn't eaten in 2 hours and goes "off"? Food. Real food. Anything from PBJ sandwich to hot cereal to leftovers to fruit and cheese to... anything healthy and on-hand that appeals at the moment. Note... I dont' arrive with food every 2 hours. But... if difficult child shows up and says "I'm hungry" he gets fed. Even if it's 30 mins before supper (at which point he either gets something being prepped for supper, or a small snack to tide him over...). OR, if difficult child starts into the "you don't love me" or a melt-down or any other "behavior" issue, the FIRST step is food. I wish I had figured that out 10 years sooner. [/QUOTE]
