3. Don’t Give In

NEVER give into a tantrum. Most parents end up giving in because they are embarrassed, tired of the screaming or may even be afraid of their child or what they may do as a result of throwing a fit. Giving in to your child’s demands because of a temper tantrum sets a dangerous precedent that your child will interpret as “yelling= I get what I want.” Use steps 1 & 2 of this list to help avoid giving in.
