Even your little angel will, at times, challenge you.

Here are some tips to dealing with temper tantrums in a graceful manner from Parent.com

1. Avoid outbursts:

As your youngster works on developing his or her tolerance levels, be careful to avoid situations which trigger their outbursts. Limit their exposure to limits of time you know they can handle.

2. Provide alternatives to violence:

When your child does act out, reprimand them sternly enough that they know it’s unacceptable. Be careful to critique only their reaction to their emotion and not the emotions themselves. Then, provide an alternative method of expression, such as encouraging him or her to say “I’m mad” instead of kicking and screaming.

3. Set a good example:

Children are amazing models of adult behavior. Be sure to keep your own reactions in check when you become frustrated so your youngster has a good example to follow. Also be careful to stay cool and collected when your child throws a tantrum so your reaction doesn’t contradict all the good behavior you’ve taught them.
