[quote=Anonymous]We had this in a big way at 3.5 (currently 4 and hitting has diminished but been replaced by other things, sad to say). We went to a Dr Rene parenting class and I recommend that. Like PP said, stay calm and remove somebody (you, DC, both) from the situation. Don't escalate by punishing in the moment: focus on empathizing and deescalating, showing that you hear the frustration. Then after things calm down, say the consequence and follow through. It shouldnt be a surprise: my kid loses screen time and knows that is the penalty. [/quote]
