I see this was posted in Aug of 2009 soon I would have my daughter and my own struggle would begin. She never slept in her crib. I've never had a night away. She never liked her baby swing. At 1.5 she started arranging her toys "just so" and the fits began, getting worse with age. People try to tell me that her frothing fits are because she's an only child, or spoiled. No one listens, I'm so alone. I quit my job in 2012 and have Bern home with her. She rarely falls asleep before 6am and do I date wake her to break the cycle, and attempt to get her on a "normal" schedule? Hell no. I let her sleep as long as possible and I sleep to. For I dread the day to come, where we sing and dance around the hidden mine fields. For we must sing, and we must dance, for she has said so. Every few minutes it's an anxious question that must be soothed. Or a melt down over something not right. Tonight to try to snap her out of a fit, I slapped her sweet face, my husband raised his fist, and said if I ever did that again he'd kill me. Is this what I had envisioned all those years waiting to finally have a child of my own? No.
My son seems to be very similar to this..and about being angry about something that is crazy! I feel bad someone else has to have a child behave this way..i cry so much and dont know what to do...cant say that there is anything for him to be angry about...I stay home with him and devote sooooo much time to him...i dont even get the house all clean ever... he takes classes goes places regularly just because we think he will like it...i have a great marriage...he is smart and friendly all other places then he comes home and takes a raging out on me..he spits hits kicks smacks scratches..he has bruised me and himself and drawn blood and run into walls and furniture and on and on...yelling out windows screaming name calling profanity...threats...and then when hes done he is sweet and apologizes and hugs and kisses and i feel my heart break further...what can I do?!!!
well, he seems to have a lot of anger inside him over something. You need to find out what he is so mad about. Maybe something else is going on in his life that is really stressing him outh.. ?
