Temper tantrums
My 5 year old son is very adamant and aggressive at home. In school he is well behaved. The teacher and friends have good opinions on him. At home, if we say NO to any of his needs, or he gets upset on something, he screams and throws all objects down. Sometimes he hits us. How much ever we speak about this, it is not helping. At least weekly once he does this. Will he outgrow this? Or it need medical intervention?
