[quote=Anonymous]13:54 and 14:01, do you think your responses were helpful? I don't think what you did was abuse, but leaving a bruise on a child is unfortunate and should be avoided. If he was truly in danger of running into the street I would have picked him up and taken him inside, or to the car, and let him scream it out there. It helps, with an older tantrumming child to acknowledge and validate their feelings, and to help them express them. Also, in the end, the schedule doesn't matter. It matters that he gets home safely and unharmed. And missing out on activities because he threw a fit is a natural consequence that will help him make better choices about how to spend his time, and how to express his feelings. [/quote]
