behaviour problems and how to deal with them

Hi im new to this forum, I have a recently diagnosed 8 year old daughter she has difficulties controlling her behaviour when she becomes anxious she kicks, bites, , pinches, hits, spits etc and wonder if anyone can give me any tips on how to deal with it.  Ignoring the situation just doesn't work as you cant ignore a child who is hitting, kicking you etc she calms down eventually but it can be quite difficult and distressing.  would be grateful for any advice.

  • Hi Boofie, welcome Smile.  Have you identified the triggers for her behaviour such as sensory issues, changes to routines, other stressors?  If so, have you been able to devise any strategies to deal with things?  I know it can be difficult.
