[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m so sorry. I think you need to have a plan with your husband to keep the baby removed from this as much as possible. It is likely affecting her developing brain.[/quote]

This is such a bizarre, judgmental, guilt-inducing thing to say. Many, many people have both kids with behavioral issues and kids without. It is not affecting the baby’s brain. [/quote]

I was thinking about this after a recent conversation with a friend about our challenging older children. IMO kids can handle a lot of tantrums from other kids, even when it’s happening at an older age than “normal “. Every baby with a 3 year old older sibling has heard tantrums. What freaks kids out IMO is when the adults start to lose it. Luckily that is much more in your control! I agree with getting lots of specific training and getting your DH on the same page. Yes you will probably yell again at some point or visibly lose your cool but modeling calm responses is the single most effective thing you can do for both your kids right now. But meds are good too if you’re struggling that much….[/quote]
