[quote=Anonymous]Calming earplugs for you, that allow you to hear her but help reduce your stress response. Start small. Do a great morning routine with her. Then let her know you are going to a piece of house work. Empty the dishwasher, start or fold laundry - something small. Go do something for 10-15 minutes. If she starts melting down, calmly acknowledge she is unhappy, but that you will do something with her again in a bit. Gradually work up to longer stretches of time. It can also help to calmly sing while they are hollering. Helps keep you calm and communicates to them all is okay - even if they don't feel that way. [/quote]
