[quote=Anonymous]OP here. So 14:08 - I'm a little intrigued by this. So maybe your DC tantrums aren't bad, but I'm trying to imagine tolerating the kicking, and screaming, and whining for as long as it goes on without removing her from the situation? I do respond initially how you do - "I understand that you wanted to park the car frontways, but I needed to unload the groceries, so we backed in today. Maybe next time we can do it your way." (This is responded to with kicking and screaming about the car). Then I don't know where we go from here, I've already acknowledged her frustration, told her it's not going to change, let her know it's not a permanent situation, etc. Plus to me, the tantrum is the behavior I'm trying to curb, so I feel like I need to punish it (remove her from the situation until she has control of her feelings). What does everyone else think? [/quote]
