[quote=Anonymous]Oh man, OP. I feel you. My DS is like this and I am admittedly the opposite of a morning person. It's a struggle fest to keep my cool. He's totally over it by the time he gets out of the car at school but some days, it really bums me out. My DS is a couple years younger than your DD and has ADHD. This is all before his meds kick in. I remind myself that he is still learning how to regulate himself but I don't hide that waking up to this most mornings SUCKS for everyone involved. I don't think they are choosing to be this way, but I also don't want him thinking "I'm grumpy so I get to treat other people like crap". We've been talking about it when we're both calm and he does want to work on just being quiet if he can't be respectful/not mean and that the feeling will pass. I'm very direct in the moment when he is disrespectful. Fingers crossed this is a phase and one day we will look back on it![/quote]
