| My 11 year old got her iPad taken away for disrespecting us and bad behavior and she’s been cursing and hitting her sibling and I for hours. I don’t know what to do. |

| OP does your 11 yr/old have a SN? Or do you suspect she has a SN? |

| If you get a Benadryl in her that is what hospitals do to calm a raging kid down. Otherwise d call in another adult. She may respond better to another adult if you and siblings step out. Or call mobile crisis unit. |

Hospitals know what they are doing? Does OP? |

| Get the sibling out of harms way and call another adult or 988. Also whatever you do, do not give the iPad back in response to this. |

| Take the sibling and lock yourself in another room until she calms down unless she’s a danger to herself. If she damages something she will have to repair it or replace it. I had to do this when my child was much younger and it’s actually the fastest way to diffuse the situation IME. |

| Is this unusual behavior for her? How does she normally respond to losing screen time? |

| Protect her sibling. That's first. Have them go in a room and lock the door either by themselves (while you try to deescalate your daughter), or with them if they are not old enough. |
