14 month old tantrums- normal?

Question

My son will be 14 months soon and recently started throwing fits whenever he doesn’t get his way. Is this normal? He’s my first.

Answer

Yep. Normal. Kids that age have all the emotions of an adult, including anger and frustration, but they don’t have to words to express what is happening or any idea how to process such emotions. It helps to start giving the child words for the emotions they are feeling. Like if he throws a tantrum because he can’t have a cookie, you could say “You really like the cookies and your frustrated that you can’t have any right now. We can have some after dinner” then redirect him to something else “let’s go read a book” etc. 
Janet Lansbury’s podcast “Unruffled” has tons of examples of this. Give it a listen and see if helps.
