Why do kids have tantrums? In a nutshell, it’s because they want what they want when they want it—it’s a visceral reaction to being thwarted by circumstances or another person.
In this week’s video blog, I give tips on how parents should react to a child’s tantrums. Here are my top three tips for tantrums:
1. Ignore the tantrum.
2. Establish a tantrum place.
3. Never give into a tantrum.
For how to actually implement those tips, watch the video.
