I think we've covered this before, but let Little C join your club! wink

I was also like that when I was little and grew up to be a pretty balanced person, so don't worry. Well, I do get my panties in a bunch sometimes, but it has to be a really good reason.

When C looses it I usually give her a firm hug and whisper in her ear that I understand that she is very upset and usually I tell her I understand why.

I let her cry for a minute or so and then start asking her to start calming herself down. If she is able to do so I give her tons of positive reinforcements. My hope is that she will learn to control her very strong emotions instead of the other way around.

So I guess what I'm saying is I'm not sending her to message that she is overreacting, it's more like I would like to teach her how to manage them.

I've always thought that when she really has a fit, it's almost as she is "saying": -Hey, people, this really stinks!!!! Not fair!!!! Didn't you hear me?!?!?! Why are you not acknowledging me!!!!!! I will not be ignored!!!!!! smile
