OK, first of ALL... until recently I did not know what my daughter had. Second of all, your son is ONLY 21 months....you have NO clue what the future holds for you with a child who has that disorder. Savannah has terrible fits of rage, violent outbursts, and screams bloody murder when she doesnt get her way. DEAL WITH THAT!!! you havent seen anything yet. Im a 24 year old SINGLE mom with 2 spoiled little brats. I try to do the best I can. I DO spoil them sometimes because I love them, but its taking its toll! NO ONE who knows me will EVEN watch my one year old. (she was born a mamma's girl and a screamer!) IM ALL ALONE. I went to Dr. Phil for help because OBVIOULSY I felt I needed it!!! Can I get SOME credit?! People dont air their dirty laundry JUST BECAUSE! Do you think I want the whole world to think Im a jerk?! NO, but I DO Know I need help with dealing with my daughter. I cant handle it by myself. Dont come down on someone that had the nerve to even come forward! its a good thing! I HAD THE "BALLS" TO SAY ON NATIONAL TV WHAT EVERY OTHER FRUSTRATED PARENT IS THINKING, AND I WASNT SCARED!!!! be a jerk if you want, but i think I just opened up a whole can of worms...youll see. TUNE IN!!!! 

  

I think you need to realize hitting your child and not being able to control your anger is never excusable, there are many other people with children that have frustrating disabilities and never resort to being physical with thier child. That is something you need to work on and it is YOUR problem, not your childs. Your daughter didn't ask to be born with this condition and she understands it even less than you do, you know what it is now and have the ability to learn about it and understand it's ramifications in ways she won't be able to for years to come.  You do have to deal with it and you have to be the adult. Always. That's just the way parenting is. I understand it must be very hard being on your own doing it but maybe you should get some kind of support group so you can hold yourself together in front of your daughter. You call you children "two spoiled brats", you make your children what they are. They can only learn what they are being taught so maybe you need to reevaluate some things.
