[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you all. I do feel better to know I'm not alone. I feel like I am over-protective b/c I don't want her to go to the neighborhood playground by herself due to these outbursts---and then I feel like I'm not letting her be a kid![/quote] You're not alone! And keep in mind, your daughter may be 8 in years but her executive functioning is the equivalent of a 5yo so you are correct to be supervising her at the playground. We don't let our ADHD 7yo play unsupervised at the playground either because his executive functioning is that of a 4yo and we certainly wouldn't allow a 4yo to go to the playground by himself.
