[quote=Anonymous]I think frustration with tantrums is very common, as is feeling hopeless and unsure about what to do when they are happening. Many emotions come up when you have a child with SN. I’d try to find a professional that can provide some home based services to help determine why the tantrums are occurring. This is the first step in minimizing or eliminating tantrums. Based on the “why” are tantrums happening they can help teach alternative skills other than tantrums (communication skills, independent living skills, transitions, accepting no, etc) and provide parent training to help prevent tantrums (environmental arrangement, schedules, etc). Therapy for yourself isn’t a bad idea either, but dealing with the day to day head on and figuring out the why behind the tantrums and how to fix it will be most useful long-term. It might take some time but it’s certainly time well spent.[/quote]
