[quote=Anonymous]4 can be a really difficult age. I think it's the time when anything out of the routine can create new challenges, so her rigidity is not unusual. However, it might mean that you need to help her be more flexible, to let things go, to keep an open mind, to try something new, to regulate her emotions better. I'd help give her language for when she's nervous or tired so she doesn't turn to screaming. And, if she does something every problematic, I'd give her a clea rand specific consequence. I'm also not above small bribes as needed to make the trip more pleasant for everyone! It just takes practice.[/quote]
