How to Handle Tantrums

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.

2. Establish a tantrum place.
3. Never give into a tantrum.
For how to actually implement those tips, watch the video.
