9. Irritability

Every child gets irritated or frustrated at times, even progressing to outbursts or temper tantrums. Children with Rett Syndrome may have magnified instances of irritability because they can't control their movements or communicate their wants and needs. They may have episodes where they cry and scream for extended periods of time, or on the flip side, they may have long fits of laughter. These periods of irritability and frustration only get worse over time.
