feel abit lost and sad that im failng to help dd1 in the right way.

she recently had a bit of a hitting/lashing out problem, that got sorted by way of a sticker chart and a lot of talking.

I know that a three year old cant really regulate thier behavior but she has turnrd into a really sensitive child, she crys at the drop of a hat, you cant tell her anything, for example, she picked up someone elses used tissue in the park today, i said ''yuck thats dirty put it down'' that was it, melt down, ran off to the other side of the park, crying, screaming, i didnt chase after her, just slowly followed her, picked her up, she was kicking and screaming, sobbing! the sobbing continued for a hour. she is now asleep.

we have these atleast twice a day, if she doesnt get her way or i explain that she cant/shouldnt do something.

she punches her self in the thigh/hip when shes getting cross.

what have i done, its like a follow on from the violence is this crap and i hate it, im starting to not want to go out. this isnt my daughter, i want my happy, lovely girl back!
