BTC and zaps are great but any other parents out there struggling rn? My six yr old is a smart wonderful kid but she is so quick to anger and has been since she was an infant. We are booked for our first family vacation ever and leave the day after tomorrow. Her stress level has been building all week and she’s waking up screaming in the night. The days are touchy too. Bedtime is the worst and she’s staying up until 11 screaming and crying while we cradle and support her. We have tried firm boundaries. No boundaries and everything in between. Nothing seems to help. We have spoken with therapists, councilors, teachers and just about everyone we can. No one can help. Thinking about canceling the trip altogether but it’s not fair to her little sister or the rest of us and I don’t want to cheat her of the experience either. We have her in a homeschool co-op group and after trying everything else we’ve found a routine that minimizes this behavior when we’re at home. Worried that we’re fucking it all up by traveling.
Anyway, sorry for the real talk, just needed to vent. GN nostriches! I love what we’re building here.
