We don't have tantrums but the running away and screaming is getting insane. Everytime we go anywhere, Elle runs away. It doens't matter how much fun there is to be had...she runs away. Then when picked up she screams several loud screams at the top of her lungs and often hits us in the face too. We do the thinking spot but the moment she is out she runs away again. This has been going on for months with no improvement.
Everytime I ask her to do something e.g. "come on sweetie, let's go and do XYX". She screams and goes the opposite way.
Today at music she kept going up onto the stage and getting in the way of the projector. I explained to her twice, then did time out ...three times and everytime she went straight back up.
The thing that gets me is that we've been consistent for months and there is no improvement at all.
Her eating is worse too and now she no longer eats any of her favourites. No cereal, toast, sandwiches, eggs, veges or meat. None at all. It is madness.
The thing I find really sad is that we plan a really nice outings, e.g. to the zoo but unless he can have 100% free rein to do as she pleases with no guidance from us at all, she get's really stroppy and angry. Even if we say something really positive e.g. "wow, look Gabrielle! It's a tiger, let's go see" she says no and runs away.
