    I’m at a loss with my 7 year old

    @p4z I would say my daughter 100% understands that because when we explain don’t let one minute ruin your day she literally snaps out of it. I believe my wife gives in much faster. I disagree with her parenting a lot. She is combative with me too, my goal is the kids. I believe the therapist is...

    I’m at a loss with my 7 year old

    @itoldmeso Her mom was at work and I was downstairs getting out of the shower. she was using it to be productive and learn something. I don’t see why I would punish her for that? Matter of fact if she uses this to get more involved in activities she’d earn more screen time. I was a shit kid...

    I’m at a loss with my 7 year old

    @amersfoort Yesterday I had one of the best days of my lives with my girls. Then. My wife came home and my oldest turned. I lost it and I’m not proud. The switch that flipped on my daughter blew my mind it took me 20 mins to even realize what the hell dhanged

    I’m at a loss with my 7 year old

    @kimvalerio05 She’s out riding bikes with her friends almost daily, bike rides are very important in this house! She also loves going to the park and trampoline activities. She’s a pretty active kid! Yesterday she hung out with me and a few buddies from 2-8 pm and was phenomenal. She had one...

    I’m at a loss with my 7 year old

    @mattj15 But she can go out and play with them in the neighborhood or their houses for 2 days without any issue! But I agree, we are getting it looked at. We don’t believe it’s her as much as it’s us trying to navigate through the emotions the right way. And if she is on the spectrum that is ok...

    I’m at a loss with my 7 year old

    @tylerfrench I mean she never went in a smashing tirade. She’d usually just yell and cheer with the song, by the time it was over we were all laughing and dancing! There is a limit to the chaos we allow even in a “safe space”

    I’m at a loss with my 7 year old

    @keji Love the idea. We used to put on crazy train by Ozzy Osbourne and tell her it’s ok to tell and be wild while this is on. It actually helped, weird we got away from it

    I’m at a loss with my 7 year old

    @elliebean It’s ok to have emotions and be upset, but we have to work on your reactions and responses! Think about it for one second before you fly off the handle, talk to me I can help you before you feel the need to yell!

    @elliebean I usually say let me know when you’re calmed down so we can talk and instantly she goes “IM calm now!”

    I’m at a loss with my 7 year old

    @leeli She 100% battled anxiety as I did as a kid, fortunately as an adult I’ve learned I’m able to get on top of it 99.9 percent of the time. Anxiety is very real with her, if she thinks of a setting that stresses her out she will hang onto it and prepare for it for hours. For example if we say...
