[QUOTE="3girls, post: 52051, member: 3827"] I just discovered this site this week and it looks like a great resource for parents with challenging kids. So, let me tell you my story about my 5 year old daughter. Early on my husband and I recognized her VERY independent nature. She would rebel against us and throw long tantrums. We thought she would grow out of it. Long story short, she hasn't grown out of it...in fact it is getting worse. daughter is very easily frustrated, loves to scream at the top of her lungs, kicks, hits, slams doors, etc. My husband and I can't figure her out. When we talk to her school, they say that she is an angel to have in class. They have no problems with her, that is until we arrive. The she will start whining and acting up. Her tantrums at home seem totally unreasonable. She gets totally out of control. She is very physically active (loves to play outside, swing, etc). To my knowledge has normal speech for her age. husband and I have just started to explore our options for her. We got a referral from her pediatrician. but then found out that they were not covered by our insurance so we are waiting for more information. I have no idea what to do...I feel like husband and I have tried everything (time outs, rewards, charts, spanking). They don't seem to work. I'd appreciate any advice you all can give. Thanks!
