This may seem to be the opposite of what you have to do (be more strict) but perhaps the child for some reason is not feeling understood or regarded. Have you tried to be extra caring and affectionate, together with patient, and calm...even if he starts one of his episodes? Try to show him much love, make activities with him, take him out for family trips, but ask him where he wants to go...show him that he is very important to the family, that his opinion matters, and that he is very much loved... Nevertheless, you might have to be strict with him when he exceeds himself...remember, be firm in a VERY CALM way; and always explain to him why he is punished if he is or any other consequence. Hope this help.s Regards, Ariel. Hello,
