[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I babysat a friend’s son while she was at a job interview. At her suggestion, I took him to the park and let him run around. Then I took him to a cafe (to warm up with a hot milk) where he proceeded to tantrum. I picked him up and told him that if he didn’t stop, they would kick us out. He was shocked and immediately settled down. He kept giving the staff little looks every couple minutes until we left.[/quote] Curious here, why did he tantrum? [/quote] He wanted a specific Starbucks snack. We weren’t at a Starbucks. He could not handle the unavailability of the snack. I offered alternatives. The baristas offered alternatives. He thought I should crosstown with him to go to the Starbucks across from his preschool. I told him we would not and he temporarily lost his mind.[/quote]
