[quote=Anonymous]I sat on the floor with him between my legs, with my arms wrapped around his arms (so they could not move) and my legs over his legs (so they could not move). If he tried to head butt me, I put one arm around his arms and one hand on his head to hold it against my shoulder. I talked to him calmly and said "I will not let you hurt me or hurt yourself or tear up the house. When you are done with hitting and throwin, I will let you go." Then I sat there and talked to him calmly and sang to him until he was done. I sometimes stopped and asked "Are you done yet?" When he was done, we went back to what we were doing. If he was throwing a tantrum because he wanted something, I redirected him to the correct way to ask for it. If he asked politely, he could have it. If he could not have what he was tantruming to get, I redirected him to another activity.[/quote]
