How to Manage Tantrums?
3. Teach how to control negative emotions: Narrate
small stories or cite your example to tell how self-control
can be gained in fighting against screaming, shouting and
kicking.
4. Talk your heart out: Communicating with the child and
explaining to him/her the reason for saying “NO” to a
particular thing is important. Don’t tag your child as “bad
boy/girl” when your child throws tantrums.
5. Distract and divert: Crack a joke or engage your child
in some other activity which deviates the child’s mind.
