Living with an angsty three-nager? Here’s how to handle toddler tantrums.
Life with a toddler can sometimes feel like an emotional roller coaster. One moment he’s laughing and bursting with confidence; next, he’s howling and desperate for a reassuring cuddle. At times, you may struggle to find ways to deal with your toddler’s ever-changing mood.
The problem is that your child has yet to gain full control over his feelings. He tends to react impulsively. If he is happy, he instantly smiles. If he is sad, he cries immediately. And if he is annoyed, he shows his rage. It’s as if there is no middle ground, only extremes.
Plus, the typical toddler only sees everything from his point of view. That’s why, for example, he demands that you play with him even though you have told him you are tired. Anything or anyone who stands in his way becomes the target of his outburst.
