Tantrums
How are we managing intense tantrums? The ones where they are hitting and screaming and don’t want you to be near them. They break my heart 😩

@Alexandra thank you 😌
It’s really hard! We try to acknowledge the feeling and take breaths together. But if I can’t soothe him out of it, I try.. - change of scene - distractions with something else - playing some music he likes - acting silly / dancing with dad. Just try to change his state and move onto another activity. Sometimes it’s just riding the wave 😬 (Then chocolate for us once it’s all over!!)

If she’s trying to hit me with something I take it away. Then I do try and hug her and if she fights it then I step away and count saying breath in and out ( don’t think she understands in and out ) but she has just started blowing out when I do sometimes and iv only done it about 2 weeks
