Could Extreme Mood Swings In A Toddler Indicate ADHD?
I have a day care in Southern Indiana. There is a 4 year old child who can be as good as gold most days, and then others days he is horrible. I actually had to call the police yesterday. He tore up and destroyed half of our play area. His doctor will not test him for adhd until he is 5. I suspect it could also be allergy related. We are in the allergy center of the USA. What can I or his parents do so they can stay at work and I can keep him at the day care without hurting the other children?

Hello,
Possibility of an ADHD or adjustment disorder must be ruled out. Consult a paediatric psychologist and he will direct you accordingly.
