[QUOTE="April2013, post: 567201, member: 15638"] [COLOR=#222222][FONT=Verdana]Thank you all for your comments and suggestions. More details for you: My daughter knows what she is doing, understands that there is a better way to be angry and she wants to try to handle her anger rather then hit. Her father has always been a little Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and extreme, he was raised that way. At his core, he is generous and kind but he almost has no concept of compromise and zero tolerance for open opinions. This mentality is absolutely rubbing off on my daughter and I firmly believe her issues are "learned" and hitting is the way she can express her dislike and it is eaier for her to hit rather then communicate her feelings?? I'm guessing because through the years I have always told her to use her words and she has many times screamed "your not understanding me". The psychologist was able to get through to him last night and I feel better today knowing a professional is starting to open his mind a bit.
