[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1) Sounds like the apple may not have fallen far from the tree. They both get easily overwhelmed and frustrated, no? 2) Sounds like you are headed for a neuropsych for your DC. That much volatility is unusual for age 4.[/quote] This was my ADHD 4 year old. And my DH has been plodding along not understanding that he needs to do some really hard work if he’s going to be able to parent this kid. It’s hard. But it’s necessary. I don’t really agree that you just need to let him “figure it out” if he’s not highly emotionally intelligent. It may damage your kid and their relationship if he can’t “figure it out” fast enough. If kid gets continually dysregulated it only compounds. You may think tantrum is over, boom they’re regulated. But they may be *just* under control but stressed and have a much lower threshold for stress before they meltdown again. Same is prob true for your spouse. [/quote]
