[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ignore. Keep in mind that once you start ignoring the tantrums the behavior will get worse while the kiddo tests your resolve. Maintain the resolve, and keep going. Also, ignore actively. Which means, don't roll your eyes, don't sigh, don't look annoyed - it works better for me when I DO something. I read the paper or do dishes, or get the vacuum cleaner. Do something though, don't stand there watching them tantrum and call it ignoring.[/quote] +1 to all of this.[/quote] +2 DH and I used to hum "Just Walk Away Rene" and continued talking as if it weren't happening. The tantrum stage passed quickly with all my kids. The experts all agree on one thing and one thing only - tantrums cannot work. You cannot give in. [/quote] +3 Yes, yes and yes. [/quote]
