In this podcast, I’m talking about . . . TODDLER TANTRUMS! Tantrums are very hard for many of us to understand and deal with. This is such an important topic, and there was just too much good stuff to get into one episode, so let’s cover it in two. In this episode, I’ll explain why children have tantrums. Then in my next episode I will offer practical tips for responding to them.
Overview
- What is a distress tantrum? (Child cries and can’t communicate well; he’s not trying to manipulate.)
- Avoidable triggers
- Unavoidable triggers (Why you’re not a bad parent if your toddler cries sometimes.)
