tantrums are a kids way of checking how far you will go.as much as we all say we will not give in there are sometimes when we have a million things on our minds and the easiest way is to give in,especially in public.however we need to get back on track and show them whos in charge. a good way to overcome this is to reward them with something else when they listen.this will show them is pays well to listen.

I think parents need to be kinder to one antother, if a child is throwing a tantrum, parents are often responding to get out of an imbarrising situation, parents should be allowed to parent, and should never feel they have to deal with an issue because others are judging them or critisising the way they parent, if you do it ones, you open the door. parent from love and understanding not from a place of imbarresment. support parents that is saying no by accepting what they are doing.

This tantrum stage doesn't happen with every child, my son didn't go through this horrible stage, however my daughter of almost 2yrs of age is there right now, I have adapted the ability to pretend its not happening. I just switch off,

Tantrums are usually thrown around the 2 year mark. If she's throwing a tantrum at 4, her father probably indulges her just as he did there, so she knows it works. Even though it's embarrasing, you do it once, you're screwed. That is not the way to deal with a tantrum. I feel sorry for the mom and dad when her birthdays come around. I'm thinking My Super Sweet 16...

Kids are so damn smart, they know exactly how to push the right buttons to get exactly what they want. This type of behaviour needs to be stopped early, whether you are in a public place or not!!!

Unbelievable!!!! I'm sorry to say this but that's not love. It's spoiling and that smells trouble. My daughter used to throw tantrums when she was a baby and I would just ignore her. Trust me this works
