Hellobee Boards

My kid was the same at 4 and at 5 has just been diagnosed with adhd. Her “tantrums” are because of a lack of impulse control. Taking stuff away from her only makes things worse. What does work is a lot of empathy and teaching her to work through her feelings. She was always better at preschool than at home because she would hold her intense feelings in at school and then just explode at home.

So we are very glad we started therapy through a referral from our pediatrician’s office. Not ridiculous at all to seek professional help.
