Hi my daughter has just turned 5 and she still has incredible tantrums, worse now than when she was 2. She talks to me with such attitude and her face is all contorted in anger, she mainly vents all her anger at me (her mummy) I suppose because I am her main carer as her dad works so that I can stay at home. She is good as gold when she is with grandparents or got me all to her self. I have tried the one stike and you are out, I have tried the naughty step but she just screams and shouts for the whole 5 mins she is there and her 2 yr old brother gets upset with her crying all the time. I feel as if everything we do isn't good enough, she will give her daddy lots of loves and kisses all the time but I am an afterthought. What do I do ???

you are not alone...my little boy turned 5 a few weeks ago and he's got terrible stroppy. He has taken to screaming at everything and it's driving me mad Big Grin
To be honest I think he's bored of the summer hols.
My advice is to ignore not easy at times I know but it delivers a very powerful message that you will not give attention to such behaviour.
It does get better I promise.I also have a 10 year old and a 14 year old and they went through it too.
