[quote=Anonymous]When my 4 year old is like this I have to take him gently and bring him to his room or some other enclosed space, where i sit on the floor with him and try to calm him down. They aren’t learning anything once they get to that melt down mode, it’s just time to practice self regulation at that point. We do natural consequences for little moments as well like, if he hits his sister with a toy then I take that toy. If he throws his food then we don’t move on to dessert until he cleans the kitchen floor. Etc. But always very calmly and not escalating the adrenaline. That gets the best results. [/quote]
