One of ours went through a similar phase when he was three. You just have to ride it out. It won't last very long.

Three year olds are a mystery sometimes. Just stay calm, consistent and unemotional. It's not personal. If he has to be left then he has to be left. It probably won't last long. One of many phases. Cheer up.

My grandsons 3 and a half and has suddenly started screaming and being really upset when his mum and dad drop him off at me on a Friday or if im babysitting for him at their home. It is very distressing to witness and there is no talking him round. It’s reduced me to tears as he and I have had a very good relationship for nearly 2 years when I started looking after him on Fridays. He is so full of anger and rage and is really distressed. He eventually comes round after 20 mins - 45 mins but it has happened really suddenly. Any advice out there on how to deal with it? Thanks
