[quote=Anonymous]Toddlers are little irrational tyrants. Stop trying to placate him. Keep him safe and wait out the tantrum, then give him a hug. Work on teaching him to take deep breaths when he's calm. When he gets older; he'll know how to take deep breaths when he's upset. As for your husband's tantrum; tell him to take a walk around the block when he's losing his cool. Yelling is not good modeling. I've done it, but try not to; and dh and I tap out when we are losing our cool. But the cookie? It feels like you're rewarding screaming and that may bite you in the butt if you keep this up. Fresh air, yes. Cookie? No. [/quote]
