  • how do you deal with problem kid? my daughter is 4 year old and throws tantrums, screams & has anger problem.?

    we had mutual consent divorce 2 yrs back. my daughter has never stayed with me since birth. and now she is getting unmanagable for my ex-wife. i have been diagnosed as having borderline personality disorder (BPD) last year (history of physical abuse in childhood). some of the traits of BPD can be inherited, and my daughter seems to have picked up the worst from me. while i have undergone therapy, it's distressing to see my daughter having these characteristics at such a young age. i emphathise with my ex-wife but beyond that there's not much i can do from long distance. we are both doctors (i'm obstetrician & she's paediatrician) and at wit's end. any child psychologist here?

    my 4 yr daughter beats up everyone at her home (uses stick)- ex-wife & in-laws, pulls their hair, bites them, screams as if someone is hurting her. it's embarassing for them (neighbours hear). if not allowed to beat them, she bangs her head on walls and bites herself. they pacify her for fear of self-mutilation
