[quote=Anonymous]I vote normal, and while I do think my oldest has some anxieties we are better at managing them now. As others have mentioned, being overtired, hungry and long periods without routine definitely play into it. Now at just over 5, prolonged tantrums are uncommon, but she still has her moments where she throws herself on the ground and flails for a couple minutes or has some tough drop offs at Sunday school (regular school is fine) as separation anxiety has always been a trigger as well. Lots of exercise and activity are also huge for her. How is he at preschool? Is he holding it together there? I think it's very common for these strong willed kids to hold it together at school and then save their meltdowns for home. [/quote]
