When are meltdowns not ok anymore

I was watching a suoernanny episode and the boy and girl are hvaing tantrums like ds. He is 26 months old. I think they looked like 4 and 5 maybe. I know tantrums are normal, but what age can they deal with emotions better and are tantrums no longer ok.

ALso- do you do a timeout for tantrums or just wait till they are calm. DS has been fighting getting dressed for school lately, not everyday but every so often

  • Alex fights about getting dressed.  She will have an outright tantrum about that.  She will get a timeout or priveledges taken away at this point.
