How often does your 3yo have a tantrum/meltdown?

Question

What strategies do you use?

Answer

It kind of depends on what you would classify as a tantrum/meltdown. My daughter isn’t a throw a fit and kick and scream type of kid. Now, she gets disappointed if something doesn’t go her way, and she’ll sulk. She also tends to challenge and disagree with us, but she doesn’t usually scream, yell, or cry about it. We usually just explain ourselves and sometimes she has to go calm herself down in her room if she’s frustrated, but after a few minutes she’ll be fine.

Answer

She doesn’t necessarily have tantrums… she just NEVER LISTENS!!!!! 🥴 She runs EVERYWHERE, climbs EVERYTHING, and never listens to a thing I say. It’s exhausting.

Answer

Mine doesn’t do all our kicking and screaming but he will pout and huff and puff when he doesn’t get something. Occasionally he’ll whine if I don’t left him have something at the store.

Answer

Honestly, getting down on his level and being calm plus hugging is huge in calming him down.
