[quote=Anonymous]OP - we took our son to a psychologist around this age for extreme tantrums (like, over the top, cannot exaggerate how bad it was). He had very willful behavior in preschool (I got notes several times per week), but no tantrums at school. DS is seven now- the tantrums are almost completely gone- just occasional , and not nearly so horrific. However, what stuck was moderate anxiety, perfectionism/controlling nature, and emotional intensity. We saw adjustment disorder from his psychologist too- it was placeholder to see if he "grew out" of some behaviors. His outbursts peaked around age 4 1/2 and gradually declined through 5 3/4. So, he was nearly six before things got appreciably better. [/quote]
