[quote=Anonymous]It is likely due to many of the above issues. You should talk with the other adults in her life about to cooperate on a plan to help her manage her feelings. She’s having trouble being flexible, so you need to listen to her feelings, acknowledge them, gently point out that this one of those times that she will have to be flexible, and help her to come up with a plan B. You can also talk out loud about yourself when you have to be flexible, so she starts to understand. You can tell her that you had to park your car in a different place than usual at work, and you didn’t like it, but it was just for one day and it is not a big deal. Kids like this have trouble realizing what should be a big deal vs. a little deal. And praise the flexibility when you see it.[/quote]
