[QUOTE="reallytrying, post: 167922, member: 5447"] OK, today was the best yet--still a big tantrum, but our basic rules covered the consequence (item used to hurt taken away for a week, 30 minutes early bedtime for hitting not related to an item). I had to use the turn taking suggested with video games: one person gets to be player one and choose the games one day and switch the next time. That sounds so ridiculous, but both kids went for it. Also, I did remove myself and easy child from her tantrum to give us a "time-out" and that seemed to help us! Yesterday she did yoga with me and was actually calm for 45 minutes. We may continue that--the steady breathing is a good way to teach her about breathing when angry. I have not ruled out other issues, but I'm glad to see a little improvement! I am concerned about the medications having ups and downs during the day and her eating less. Started the book yesterday--boy! I am glad I bought it. Thanks everyone--it's nice to read all the suggestions and similar stories. [/QUOTE]
