My 3 year old DGD, has anger issues. She has yelling fits, screaming at her mother and her father. I know it's normal to try to exert her independence, but this seems too frequent and intense. She's not a spoiled child, there have always been consequences for not obeying. Time outs, toys taken away, priviledges taken, etc.

She has a sister, one year old. There were jealousy issues, but my DD tries very hard to give GD every bit of attention while GD2, is sleeping. It seems to have gotten better.

The outbursts happen in the mornings, when she doesn't get her way, or, at dinner time. No pattern.

I told DD to document the behavior and talk with the pedatrician about it. It happens too often, and makes for a lot of pleasant days.

But, then, several days will go by and she'll be wonderful. Sweet little self again. It's frustrating.

Anyone have something similar, and what did you do?
