Precocious Puberty Support Group
Early pubic hair, breast, or genital development may result from normal but early maturation or from several abnormal conditions. Early puberty which is normal in every way except age is termed idiopathic central precocious puberty. It may be partial or transient. If your child is going through early puberty, share your experiences here and get support.
How do you deal with the anger and aggression from PP?
If she was 7, then maybe I could talk with her and explain what is happening to her and how to try and deal with it... and even then, I am not sure that would work. But she is 2. None of this makes any sense to her.
I don't have an issue with her getting mad for not getting her way and throwing herself on the floor throwing a fit. That, is kind of normal 2 year old behavior and she did it twice and I broke her of that real fast. (Ignoring her, she quickly learned... this method is not working.)
This is unwarranted anger or anger way out of proportion. She will go into her bedroom and start throwing everything down in a rage of fit. All her toys and all her books.
Right now, I think I have it under control. When she starts, I pick her up, hold her tight, tell her I love her and calm her down. I say that is not how we act and then, once calm, I make her pick everything up.
When she is angry and upset, I can usually hold her and talk her down from her anger.
I pray this continues to work but fear soon, this method will cease to work.

Yes, throwing a fit is normal for that age. But this is different. We (you and me and the parents) know the difference. You can tell it is different.
I think what you are doing is the best you can at this point in time. Maybe as she gets older you can start talking about it and allowing it less. But right now, they are simply too young to understand.
