severe temper tantrums that happen on a weekly basis for the past 6 weeks. According to his mother, “They often follow a change in his routine, not having an afternoon nap, or if he’s hungry. On rare occasions Allen will get so worked up that he’ll grab something and throw it on the floor. Funny, but his teachers love him at preschool.
