can I have a post please, could anyone give me any help or advice. I have a 5year old girl if shes doesnt het her own way she hits me, throws things at me and screams in my face and she doesn’t sleep at night no matter how early I wake her in a morning she never goes to sleep at night most nights it’s 2am she jumps on my bed her bed, banging, jumping in floors and again throwing toys, smacking me. I’ve tried all different types of punshiments but nothing works, I never let her sleep in the day. she wakes her 10month old brother at night she also hate him having any attention but I give her just as much attention had him. I’m so drained I work shifts night’s and days. sorry for the long post x

Forgot to say I’m not throwing the send card but my daughter is having ASD assesment x
Could you make a date twice a week for her Big Sister diary and go for an ice cream without little fella? You could ask her what the pressures of being a big sister feels like for her.
Was this normal behaviour before the arrival of her brother ?
Could this be adhd? Certainly try to get her assessed and start now because it could take years
If this behaviour was the norm for her before the baby, you definitely need to go to a doctor as it could be a neuro divergent thing. However of this behaviour only occurred after the baby came it’s jealousy and would need some other tactic c to deal with the behaviour.
This could be signs of austim or Adhd or could be both if this been happening after the baby arrive it siblings jealously
