The Angry Child

"Oh, you better not cry; you better not pout...." – so reads the German translation of the Christmas classic Santa Claus is Coming to Town.

If every healthy child didn’t occasionally misbehave, those familiar lines wouldn’t have made it into a Christmas song. For that reason we encourage all children to show their best side at Christmas (you know – Santa sees everything).

But what happens when our children’s emotions – especially anger and rage – are out of control all year round?

Of course a tantrum now and then is to be expected. That’s perfectly normal. But sometimes, despite the best parental guidance, uncontrollable fits of rage can take on pathological forms – where homeopathy can be a good treatment option.

But don’t take my word for it. One of my students shared an impressive success story with the community and kindly allowed us to publish it here.

Anger, Frustration and Lyme Disease

"For three years our son has had explosive bouts of anger, frustration and temper tantrums, accompanied by extreme separation anxiety and other emotional issues. He would regularly throw himself on the floor, hit people/furniture and, during his rages, kick at glass/walls. He also overturned household items.

"In addition, after recovering from Lyme disease he had a residual burning in his muscles. He hadn’t ridden a bike in a year and would cry from pain during riding lessons that he desperately wanted to attend. Every bedtime brought further tantrums. Our aim was to minimise the damage to us and our property and to protect him.

"He refused herbal remedies, homeopathics or emotional coaching. The doctors had no diagnosis and could offer no advice. A chiropractor found a nerve impingement at C2, but our son refused treatment.

"I had taken one of Joette’s courses and was confident I would find the answer there! For two days I shut myself in my study, worked through the course material and scoured the materia medica and the repertory.

"I chose Stramonium C200 (every other day) [and other homeopathic remedies for other conditions]. Within two weeks he could ride a bike and go riding again, his tantrums had reduced by about fifteen percent, he spoke spontaneously with adults and could be left alone for a few minutes.

"After eight weeks his muscle burning had disappeared completely; his tantrums occurred only a few times a week instead of several times a day – and when they happened they were less severe – and he became a bit more independent.

"After ten weeks we noticed that on the days he received Stramonium he had severe collapses. So we changed the dosing to once a week and then stopped the remedy altogether when it had done its work.

"After fifteen weeks, we feel we have finally met the sweet five‑year‑old boy he had been all along! He is hitting developmental milestones as if by magic and in harmony with divine creation. All symptoms have abated over the weeks.

"It was so wonderful that friends and family can hardly believe it. My husband says that all the effort was worth it to see this wonderful healing that we no longer thought was even possible. Our family is saved, thanks to what I learned from Joette this year!"* – Jennifer A.

Stramonium as the Remedy of Choice

Well done, Jennifer! My whole team was moved to tears when you shared this story. Dear readers, see here what a mother can achieve who sets out to learn homeopathy. It’s a miracle!

I am particularly impressed by her choice of the remedy Stramonium, a very effective homeopathic medicine long reputed to treat fits of rage associated with fear.

I have already written about its use in both the 200 potency and the 6 potency here. Further information on dosing and potencies for the remedy can also be found at the following link. In my experience Stramonium did the heavy lifting here, making other measures unnecessary. But please remember there are always many roads that lead to Rome!

However, I am very pleased with the excellent work my student did! She set herself a noble mission and succeeded. She furthered her knowledge of homeopathy and was thus able to positively change the life of a child and an entire family. 

Can there be a higher purpose than this? I certainly can’t imagine one.

As always: homeopathy helps – spread the word!

Warmly,

Yours
