Im concerned for my daughter

My five yr old daughter is putting her teddy bears, clothes anything she can find down her pants and humping the stool in our living room. I know masturbation is normal but it doesnt stop there. Shes cut her hair with scissors four times now when no ones looking, shes had night terrors since she born, her attitude is just terrible, she calls her brother and I jerks...I dont know whats going on here. Im worried that im losing my own daughter! I dont think shes being abused in any way...when I asked her who makes the tickle- she says mommy i know only me and my dr are allowed to touch my private. I just dont know why shes acting this way. Does anyone have any ideas?

There is something upsetting her as she is acting out perhaps if you seperate he children so they cant fight a lot may help, do not let her be the aggressor , when she starts to fight put her into time out, and make sure her older brother treats her kindly also. Are there any other children at her Fathers house, and has he got a new partner,perhaps there are other factors going on to upset her.

She has an older brother with Aspergers. I am the only parent here anyway, she does see her father- Tues, Thurs and every other weekend. Her and her brother fight non-stop but shes more the aggressor...

How does she get on with her brother is he older ot younger than her, if he is older is he kind to her, some big siblings like to tease the younger children. Are you the only caregiver?
