[quote=Anonymous]Hard to know if this is normal without more context. How often are we talking? How long are the rages? What happens during them? I feel like a 7 yo kid getting rage-y from time to time when hungry, tired, sick, or just….pissed, is reasonable. You just do your best to sit with them, and teach how to regulate themselves better by scanning their body to see if they are hungry or need a rest, by talking out problems with classmates instead of letting them stew, by taking a deep breath before they get angry, etc. But every once in a while people lose their cool….we are humans and kids should know that you are not afraid of their emotions so that they can express them freely. If the rages are getting in the way of learning, friendships, daily peace at home…then yes, a therapist is where you should start. And talking to their teacher to thoroughly understand what they see in that setting, too. [/quote]
