[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is the 4-year old well behaved in preschool?[/quote]

OP here. The 4-year-old is well-behaved everywhere but at home. Preschool, grandparents, babysitters. She is still spirited and emotional, but very manageable. Her teachers and our date night babysitter were shocked when I was mentioning going to a therapist with her.

I do think a lot about if there's something truly off with her besides just being a very emotional kid, which absolutely runs in the family...and if so, what kind of therapy would really help. The thing is none of it really comes up in the therapist's office, she's an angel there.

I’m not saying this is your kid, but this behavior is not uncommon in kids that end up being diagnosed with some kind of needs. They are able to hold it together in a public setting and then melt down at home from the stress of it all, since it’s their safe space. It might be worthwhile to schedule a behavioral assessment, so that you can get her the appropriate help if it is needed. [/quote]

Sometimes. I realize the safe space mantra has become popular online as has diagnosing everyone bas neurodivergent which if even is neurodivergent. But alot of the time is the kid has figured out how to work mom and dad.[/quote]
