[QUOTE="Malika, post: 493274, member: 11227"] (Reminds me of the Paul Simon song: No, I would not give you false hope, on this sad and mournful day...) I realise that I am always a bit surprised when I read on the forum of children older than J still displaying his kind of behaviour - meltdowns, aggression, etc. And then that made me realise that part of me is definitely thinking and hoping that J is going to grow out of all this stuff, just mature out of it and calm down. Yet the realistic prognosis is probably that he is not going to, right? He has definitely got better at controlling his aggression with other children, if I think about how he was when he was say 2 or 3, but he is still as aggressive with me, still constantly has meltdowns and tantrums. Just felt a bit shocked when I realised tonight that I have been living on false hope... [/QUOTE]
