Wow. Okay. Um. Wow. I can't offer much advice on the matter, and I don't have my own children, but I can say that I've been locked in a house with someone ELSE'S children all day when one of three was acting out like that. What I did when she started 'goin' nuts' on me was ignore her. I stayed calm and ignored her. At one point I picked her up, put her in her room (she's 7 or so), and ignored her screams of torture. I told her that when she was ready to apologize for treating everyone badly, that she could come out and play with us. Once she realized she wasn't going to get the attention she wanted (and usually got from her parents when she acted this way), she calmed down. :shrug: I don't know if that'll mean anything to anyone, because it wasn't MY kid, and I didn't deal with them on a daily basis, but...... :shrug:
