This weekend has been a weekend full of meltdowns. DD has had several, rangeing from about 20 minutes to an hour. She kicks and screams and cries and yells. I'm so surprised we havent had the cops land on our doorstep yet.

I try to be really patient and try to explain things to her and get her to settle down. And I try to distract her attention to something else. DH gets to a point where he can't take it and just yells at her (which obviously doesnt work, it makes her worse)

What do you do in these situations? I just don't know the best way I need to approach calming her down? HELP???
