My 4 almost 5 year old is out of control. She has really bad screaming fits at lease 1-2 a day if not more. She will freak out when our dog looks at her. Its the worst when she is eating and the dog begs for food. We have feed the dog at the same time but she finnishes her food before my daughter and stands by her. She will also freak out if the dog is looking at us. She screams to the dog to not look at mommy's food. She flips out if take her to the playground and say it's time to leave. If she doesn't get her way she goes into a screaming fit. She won't let me comb her hair. She doesn't like loud noises like sirens or fans. Her behavior is out control. We have been using Love and Logic. She gets a marble for good behavior. If she has so many marbles at the end of the week she gets to go to her favorite place our local amusement park which we have season passes for. She also goes into screaming fits when we say she has to come home from her friends. Or when her friend has leave from playing at our house. It has gotten to the point where her friend doesn't come around as much. She also will get small rewards during the week if can go through without a fit she gets a small piece of candy, or a coloring book or small stuffed toy. I have researched a lot online. She has a lot of the signs of Sensory Processing Disorder.
However, until last year we lived with my dad and his girlfriend. The girlfriend has PTSD. She can not have a lot of screaming or any chaos. This woman had to have total peace. So I would give in to what ever she wanted to keep peace. I know this played a part. But now that have moved out she has had a hard time not getting what she wants. Like I said it has been a year. I would think she would have improved by now. Please help me. How do bring this up with my doctor?
