I'm at breaking point

[tyler's mum]

Tyler has alway been bad at temper trantrums she was getting really bad. I put her into day care about 5 weeks ago for 2 days a week. She also go's to play group one day a week. Her behaviour was getting really good and her trantrums cut right down to maybe 5 or so a week.

She was sick on wed so could'nt go to day care or play group on the thur. day care was also shut on fri so all week she didnt go anywhere really. I know being sick gets them of track a bit. But OMG she just has been out of control. Throwing at least 10 if not more trantrums a day (back to her old self) not listening to me.

This morning she was having a trantrum in the shower to the point she fell and hit her head. Also today she draw on the wall with a blue crayon:banghead::banghead: She has never done this before not even tryed to. My mum not long painted the wall for me its a swede feature wall

Im so mad and ive just about had it. I can't handle her when she is like this she just gets out of hand. Im hoping that when she go's back to day care and play group her behaviour starts getting better:fingerscrossed: This has been a week of hell and im so over it

I have no easy answer for you DD

But figured you could use a few:hugs:


My DD has "decorated" quite a few things for us, has the most wonderful tanti's and has an apprenticeship to work with Rafferty the Wrecker when she's 16.....

I am sorry u are going through this, by what u described I think she is really bored. The routine & busyness of daycare seems 2 suit her. Do u have a strong routine 4 her at home?

When my daughter has thrown a tantrum I simply stick her on a cushion, on the bed, on the couch, wherever and tell her to find me when she finds her talking voice then walk away and leave her. In the shower just turn off the taps, get her out and don't show her any emotions. Just dress her without talking to her, then tell her that she needs to find her talking voice instead of her yelling voice then you will talk to her. Sorry, that's all I've got but it's worked not only for my girl but for those I have in daycare also. Oh, here are some hugs to get you through :hugs:

onemummmy, we dont really have a routine well not a set one anyway. I play with her all day we play puzzels, kick the ball around out side, play games on pc pretty much what ever she wants to do. She is a kid that all way need to be doin something ot she is bored, I dont know what else to do with her then the things we do.

Ive tryed the naughty spot its walls sometimes. Ive out her in my room (no toys in there) and shuted the door at least 4 times today. That works for a little while.

mammabear03, good idea i think i may try that i got her out of the shower. I was so mad and i said to her that this need to stop im not putting up with it anymore. Maybe try not saying anything to her

I so cant wait untill wed when she go's back to day care

I agree with onemummy. It does sound like she is bored. Even though you keep her busy at home she probably prefers the routine, activities and children that she gets at care. Its not that she doesn't want to be at home with her Mummy but its probably not as busy as what she has gotten used to. Maybe try adopting the routine that is used at her child care at home.

I hope the tantrums improve for you soon.

Here are some :hugs: for you. Don't :hair: to much I know its hard but try to remember its only a faze and her age:)

[tyler's mum]

I agree i know that its bacause she is bored and i know she is only 2. But i just get so mad because there is no reason for her to act this way. Its not like i dont try and do things with her i play whatever she wants to do.
