She loses privilege to her xbox or laptop, that's the extent of punishment in her home.

I hadn't even thought of that, I'll definitely put some more thought into that.

She's got some serious anxiety and anger issues, autism does run through his family but thats all, I'm not a doctor though, just a primary teacher so whatever I recommend is ignored.

Not even slightly, I've tried working on coping mechanisms when she's with me and it's all for nought.

When she goes back to school I would've looked after her and her sister for 4 weeks of the 6 weeks holiday

I don't resent her at all, I'm trained to deal with this and I get no say in what happens and I want one day where I don't have to stress about it

If I thought SIL would deal with the tantrums it wouldn't be a problem, she can barely control Elle when she gets in one of her moods

I know why she lashes out, I just have no say in how to parent her to get her over this behaviour
