Control the Temper Tantrums and Master the Terrible Twos

Need Tips for Handling Temper Tantrums?

• Stay Calm. If you need to walk away and count to ten, do it.
• Try to keep your composure, and don’t get angry back.  It will only escalate the tantrum.
• Don’t give in to your child’s fit. This will just cause your child to use them to get what they want.
• Move your child into a room by themselves until they calm down. After they calm down, talk to them.
• Try not to discipline your child in public. Go to a private place and talk to them.
• Try not to use the word “No”.  When you overuse the word no, your child will stop listening.

My Personal Experience with Temper Tantrums and Terrible Twos

My wife and I have two daughters – 4 years old and 2 years old. They both went through the terrible twos and the older one has been through (as I like to call it) the terrific threes. My wife and I were at our wits end. We didn’t know what to do to stop the tantrums, back talking, and overall defiance. We went through the terrible twos once with the first daughter, but when the second daughter starting going through them, it was too much. It was making us irritable, and we were constantly yelling at both our kids and each other. Our kids didn’t listen, they fought all the time, and they cried and threw tantrums when they did not get what they wanted. My wife and I tried everything, but nothing seemed to work.

Then we found The Happy Child Guide. This book changed the way we dealt with our children tantrums and behavior, and it has been a huge help. Not only are our kids listening to us now, but the fighting has gone down considerably, the kids have stopped talking back to us, and now my wife and I aren’t yelling nearly as much.

The Happy Child Guide gave us the information we needed to better handle the temper tantrums. It also gave us tips on how we should talk to our kids when they do defy us. The book was packed with tons of information on how to control our children.  There were tons of simple tips that made a huge difference.  It was the little tweaks that really went a long way in getting us to change our children’s behavior.
