[quote=Anonymous]Fwiw, I did that as a kid - same exact age and scenario as your DD! I was shocked when my foot went through the wall and I can remember vividly how terrified I was that I had done that. In a weird way it de-escalated my tantrum and my parents could see how scared I got and we all calmed down cThey never punished me for kicking the hole (I was punished for whatever I had been screaming about in the first place) and I still remember it as a moment that reinforced for me that whatever I did, my parents still loved me.
