Children's tantrums are nothing more than the manipulation of the parents' emotions. Screaming, crying, stomping, biting, scratching and other "persuasion methods" are skillfully used by the child. Defeating the outbreak of childish anger and indignation is possible only if absolute calmness is observed.
Instructions
Step 1
Talk to your child at home. Explain to your child what you feel when he is hysterical - and find out what the child experiences. Do not forget to tell him the reason for your refusal to buy something or go somewhere.
Step 2
Maintain self-control and patience. If your kid throws a tantrum about a toy he has not bought right in the store, in no case do not give free rein to the primary emotional urges. Do not reassure or persuade the child. Do not under any circumstances use assault. Say a firm "no" and stand your ground until the child calms down.
Step 3
"Leave" the child alone with his tantrum. If the baby scandals in a public place, stand nearby and do not react to the antics of your child. Refrain from responding to comments from passers-by. They have nothing to do with the educational process.
Step 4
Try to stay calm until the “denouement”. If you let the child know that he will not be able to manipulate you, the child will quickly get tired of hysterics. The child will understand that his methods do not work for you.
Step 5
Teach your child to verbally express negative emotions. The child should be able to communicate to you about the feelings he is experiencing at the moment of rejection. Discontent, anger or resentment expressed by the baby will help prevent a fit of tantrum.
