[quote=Anonymous]When my daughter was that age, she had a fiery temper and would go into rants. For me, the least stressful way for me to deal with it was to completely zone out until it passed. I would stare at her blankly, not say a word, but in my head I was slowly counting, counting, counting... 1... 2... 3... 4... 5..., etc. That was the easiest way for me to ignore it and not be drawn into it. Once her tirade passed, I resumed my interaction with her as if nothing had happened. She is 18 now and has completely outgrown the verbal tantrums. :)[/quote]
