Do you have a child who is bossy, melts down over changes in plans or when little things go wrong? Acts like a sore loser when playing games? Collects little stones and acorns in their pant pockets? Wears the same clothes and eats the same foods? Likes to say, “That’s not fair!” and won’t stop following you until they prove their point?
