[quote=Anonymous]I feel much empathy, DD, because I know how awful it can be to live in a family situation where one child's fury is dictating things. But she has 100% picked up on your "I'm done" energy and that may even cause her to double-down on her anger and aggression. She's 12, so she doesn't have the emotional literacy to understand what she is feeling or how she is acting and she doesn't even have the ability to control it right now. She needs YOUR committed help to do that. Family therapy is the first stop, to figure out what kind of dynamics are at work among you. Then individual therapy referrals. The patterns are deeply worn in and you all will need a lot of work to break out of them, but you and your DH can change this trajectory to better support your DD and you as well.[/quote]
