how do I respond to my childs temper tantrums? sometimes I just cant handle it..

sometimes baby's throw tantrums to get your attention,or to get what they want..so what i do is to leave him and let him be. and then a minute after he stops..i dont want him to be a spioled brat thats why i dont give in on everything he wants..

Temper tantrums are a normal part of growing up.A tantrum is the expression of a child's frustration with the physical, mental or emotional challenges of the moment. try to identify the primary source of her behavior.in that age, children have limited words to express how they feel so they better course it through having tantrums.

I have four kids and the temper tantrums don't seem to get better as they older!! When my kids were toddlers I just let them run their course, put them somewhere safe, I had loads of old pillows and towels they could throw and rip at. Once they realise that screaming and hitting won't get what they want they do stop. If I was shopping and the kids started to scream for treats I would leave the supermarket,if my hubby was with me he would take the kids back to the car and have them wait with him there!!! Stay calm and loving, not easy I know but it is really the only thing to do. My older kids are teens now, so I don't have the throwing tantrums so much as the sulks which I handel in pretty much the same way. Good luck!

Have you tried her in timeout or but her into her bedroom until she settles down and then talk to her about what she was upsetting her but get to eye level when talking with your daughter. I hope that'll help you out some.. I know it can be difficult I have a 4 year old that does then same thing but she has a little more to her problems that we deal with on a daily base.. She is being tested for ADD and Autism.

yeah we too sometimes loose our patience.....even beat them. It's really a big headache can't control them. If we beat they cry and if we won't they do more.....

I've been watching supernanny on ABC and reruns on style network she gives some really good advice on what to do about tantrums and various other things that can happen with kids.

I have not personally experienced tantrums from my two boys, but I have read many articles of mothers at a loss on how they would handle their kids who throws tantrums. Some people suggests that you let them know that throwing tantrums will not get them what they want and ignore them to prove your point. I told my boys straight when they tried to imitate the other kids that if they will throw tantrums, not only will they not get what they want, they will also get spanked. I made it clear that I will not tolerate tantrums in my house.

It is better to ignore them when children does like this. I know how hard it is to ignore. I have a small kid and I immediately get irritated when she does like this. What I do is I move out of the room and start to do my work. When she realizes that I'm not paying attention to what she is doing, she simply stops. After sometime, I talk to her on why she did so and make her understand that throwing things or shouting is not right.

I have two kids and fortunately my 1st child is very nice she seldom throws tantrums but for my youngest, i cannot say the same. What I read in a magazine is to let them throw tantrums but don't react, just let them, if they see that it doesn't affect you, they will stop. then talk to them and explain to her what she did wrong..

Hi! I am a mother too, and I have experienced exactly the same thing. It is really difficult to be patient enough and simply wait for 'em to stop but unfortunately there is no other way to handle it than "PATIENCE". I say so because each child has their own tantrums simply because each of us have our own personality no matter how we try to breed a child the way we wanted. Each situation calls for a different approach but the only ONE common technique here is PATIENCE. Children are basically exploring and trying to get what they want and what pleases them are the first thing they could do to prove themselves on their elders. So if you permit something that he/she likes one time, chances are she will repeat it again mindful that its gonna be okey with you. But what if that thing is not possible this point in time? That's where tantrums come in. You may not notice it that much because they sometimes discover it bythemselves but whenever they need to try doing it again with another circumstances and it is not possible she cries and yell or shout on top of their voice defenitely to call your attention or the attention of any older attendants. This time mothers must also learn to investigate in order for her to get the exact reason why he/she is doing it and be able to give her a better explanation and a better alternative. Though sometimes its simply because the child wants to play with you that's why she keeps on doing the things that they know would urgently call your attention and give heed to their call.
