I have a 10 year old daughter who expresses severe outbursts of anger. She can't explain why it happens, and claims she feels like she can't control it. during her episodes, she screams, crys, bangs her head on the walls, throws things and just keeps telling me I don't understand. These meltdowns will last for anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour, when which she then starts to sob and repeatedly cry that she doesnt understand why she soes these things. Usually these tantrums start when she doesnt get her way, but we have never been the parents to give in to these meltdowns. Once we say something we mean it, and don't let her change our minds. She knows this, and knows that she will be punished for her actions, but just loses control. Any suggestions?
