Yeah it’s really hard. She hits us when she’s having a tantrum. Like bites, punches, pulls hair, digs her nails in us, etc. That makes it even harder not to lose my temper and sometimes I do. But for the most part I just try to understand why she’s upset, ask her how she is feeling, why she’s mad, etc. And when that doesn’t work, i’m just like well sorry little lady but you can’t have your way right now 🤷🏽♀️.
@spud do you think a bounce house would help? They sell ones for ~50 on amazon, they have a mesh net around them. I think sometimes tantrums are from having so much energy and only so much opportunity to let it out with covid and everything.
We had a mini bounce house I would blow up in our living room for our daughter.
im sure its a lack of active and social things to do. I hate social situations, especially having to watch my kids during them. And now pile covid on top of it
My experience was it was that OR just general frustration because my daughter wanted things that weren't safe for her or she wasn't able to do by herself and she would get super furious. It's tough!
Luckily dd was pretty good. If she had what a meltdown was, she was just sad or just wanted to convince me but never had full on scream fests and throwing herself around. Thabk goodness for that😅
