What Should You Do During A Tantrum?
The most important thing to do during your child’s tantrum is to stay calm; if you get upset and angry, it will only make the situation worse. Everyone’s child needs different reactions, so know your child and what they need from you.
Sometimes it is best to ignore the tantrum! If you ignore it, they realize that they will not get your attention when they throw a fit.
After a tantrum, the most important thing is to praise your child for calming down and hug your child, reassure them that they are loved, no matter what.
