Rage with no reason often is rage with no warning or seen trigger. I agree, she has 100 reasons to be mad. 2 disruptions is a big read flag and the paperwork reasons for why are not always accurrate. If at all possible, try to talk to the disrupting families. It will give you really good insight on what to expect so you can prepare and not be caught off guard.

The amount of strength even a small child can exert while raging is incredible. My son, at 4, kicked a huge hole into a door and broke his former amom's ribs.

Another son at 8 pulled his metal bunkbed apart with his bare hands and bent the bars-he had some serious anger issues. He also, at 8 while in a foster parents care, went into a rage in a Wal-mart requiring 4 security guards to restrain him until he was calm. FM was injured during this rage.

This may have been the types of rage these parents were feeling illequipped to handle.

The more you can know ahead of time the more you can prepare to handle.
