What To Do When Your Child Has A Tantrum
It is usually around two to three years old when your children start to display their temper tantrums
. This is mainly due to the fact that at that age your child is trying to show you their frustrations. They can express the frustrations at that age but cannot seem to control the way they express them.As the children are still trying to master their language skills at this age it is very hard for them to let you know exactly what they are feeling. This is then misunderstood and we assume wrongly that they are just being naughty.
Normally as the children get older and their language skills get better then we tend to see a decrease in the tantrums. Sometimes though there are still children that have tantrums at an older age.
Older children that have temper tantrums do so because they have been brought up to think that this is the only way for them to get their parents full attention. This is mainly because the tantrums of the past have led the parents to give in to the children so they naturally associate tantrums with getting their own way.
No matter where you are the best thing that you can do when your child starts to have their tantrum is just calmly walk away, as long as the child is not doing something to hurt themselves. After a while your child will stop their tantrum and look to see where you are as they do not like it when they are left alone.
After they stop the tantrum you could just walk back and calmly talk to them to see what they want. By doing this you can make them see that they get your attention more when they are calm. But whatever you do you must not give in to their tantrums.
The secret is to always stay calm whenever your child is having one of their tantrums. Shouting at them in these situations will just make things a lot worse. Just try to keep in complete control whatever the situation.
By showing your child that they get their rewards when they are good and not throwing tantrums then it will not be long before the tantrums will cease to be.
