The only advice I have for you is to keep it up. Make sure you stick to your guns no matter what. What I do with my 8 year old is pick her up put her in her room and tell her she can come out when she is done throwing a fit untill then she needs tso stay in her room and walk away. If she comes out put her back in. It is very hard I know but if you don't stick to your guns now it will only get harder. good luck and take care
one thing that has worked for me, is when your daughter is in a fit, just grab her and hold her arms and tell her to calm down. She will protest and fight. But in order for her to comply to you, you NEED to calm her down. Then you can talk to her. This has worked everytime and works with my little brother-in-law also. Trust me it's not going to be easy one bit, but you have to calm them down before you can get through to them. Then ask her whats wrong or what the problem is. You'll get to the root of it everytime. I'm trying a homeopathic route with my son. It seems to be working and I got it at an alternative health store. They mainly sell herbal supplements. Its much more natural than pharmaceutical drugs. It's up to you to decide what you want to do with your daughter. Good luck! I wish the best for you and your daughter.
You must grab her and hold her arms while she's in your lap. Basically hug her and tell her to calm down. What I tell my son is: Calm down and stop your screaming and crying and I'll let go. If he fights and tells me that I'm hurting him, I then tell him: I'm not the one hurting you, you are the one hurting yourself. If you calm down and stop fighting me, I'll let go. Good luck!
