[quote=Anonymous]My son has an intense temper and would say really upsetting things sometimes, around ages 4-6. He is a very sweet person most of the time, and at 8, almost never has those outbursts anymore. He is just intense and emotional, and likely always will be. We have worked really hard to help him, and noticed a few things: he has to get a full nights sleep, he needs his routines, he needs firm boundaries and he needs limited exposure to certain tv shows which are too intense or aggressive (weirdly, the one show we had to absolutely ban was My Little Pony. Amped my kids beyond belief). He would definitely have done those things that OP describes. But we would also have left the playground before it escalated to that level. I see a therapist and she has assured me it’s in the realm of normal but she has also helped me strategize and approach the challenges as effectively as possible. People with easier kids don’t always realize how intense certain kids can be. [/quote]
