Talk to me about tantrums.

How often does your LO have one?

What are the usual triggers?

I would say most of the time one or two, but for some reason she's so bad around family and friends. I don't think they've ever seen her not crying or screaming.

  • I would say 3 to 4 a day.

    Triggers are mostly his big brother taking stuff away, food, and being tired.

    He's typically really good in public, except at the grocery store. At the grocery store he's a terror.

  • Meadow thrives in a crowd!  She is such a flirt, and can't be bothered with being a grumpy pants if there are others watching.  She saves all her wonderful behaviors just for me!

  • How often does your LO have one? Depends some days 0 and other 3-4.

    What are the usual triggers? Telling him No, Taking something away he shouldn't have, Doing something he does not want to do, or just because lol.
