Hi, my name is racheldana! My daughter has cp and bad behaviour

racheldana

My daughter has cp she is 8 years old and she is a twin she is having very bad tantrums she is aggressive and also hurts herself, just need to speak to another parent who has been through this and ways that I can try to calm her down

Whilst not specific to cp or behaviour issues the Scope Face 2 Face service is a good way of contacting with other parents:

The situation sounds serious if she is hurting herself  so, if you haven't already done so, it would be advisable to talk to your GP and ask that s/he refer you to a source of professional support if appropriate.

Best Wishes

Jean

Hi @racheldana how is your daughter getting on? We have an advisor on challenging behaviour if you want to ask him any questions?
