behavior

hi everyone, my 10 daughter struggles with her emotions she always have conflict with friends when her friends no longer want to play or want to leave. She doesn’t understand that she need to respect her friends decisions and let go. She start arguments and don’t know how to stop she start slamming things or scream or crying. Literally she cries for everything. How I can handle this type of situation with her? Sometimes I feel like not letting her to be around her friends because end up in a mess.

those times are tough. Try role playing with her. Tell her those situations make her friends not want to be around and you need to handle it differently. Ask how she thinks she should handle it, then role play how to do it better several times.

Hi

My grandaughter also found this hard. The things that helped her were:

giving her a few reminders that finish time was coming up

Asking her what was hardest and how you can help prior to visit and you both planning what she thinks would help

Providing something else that she thinks is rewarding afterwards e.g going out for a mildshake or facetimimg a friend, playing a game with you or whatever.

best of luck. I understand it's hard for you and her.
