[quote=Anonymous][quote]I'm not talking about tantrums in stores, just regular frustration where the kid could be redirected after a little bit of attention and reassurance. How hard is it to go over, give them a hug, acknowledge their frustration with whatever didn't go the way they wanted it to, and help them get interested in something else? Very, apparently. [/quote] Eh, I never leave my kid to cry, always go over to him, hug him, try to redirect him, but it doesn't help him to stop screaming. Some kids are just very persistent, to put it nicely. I also hate it when parents ignore their kids and don't try to help and redirect them, because I feel that it is mean to the child to not at least try, but helping, comforting and redirecting doesn't necessarily equate to no more screaming and yelling.[/quote]
