How To Help Child With Temper Tantrums?
Here are few things a mom has done to handle the temper tantrum in our son.
-
Respond with a smile: When child is losing his temper and looked at you to expect shock, anger, and frustration--which will be usually your reaction--star looking at his eyes with a calm face for few seconds, to change the situation. He would get confused and would start smiling. If he was still angry, laugh loudly, and he wouldn't be able to stop his smile
-
Teach patience: Children usually throw tantrums when they want something and we don't provide it. So, to teach him patience, I played his own game. When my son started communicating, he had just learnt numbers 1 to 3. I gave him 2 pens in hand and asked him to give 3 pens back to me. He counted twice and gave 2 pens saying that he just had 2. I started throwing tantrums that I wanted 3. He couldn't understand what to do and slowly explained that he can't give me the 3rd one. We used this as a chance to explain that parents do have limited resources and thus it is not possible to buy everything, and only necessary thing could be bought
-
Role play: We usually play mother- son game that is he is my mother and I am the adamant son. Gradually, I would bring in the issues we had and he now understood how difficult it was to deal with a situation sometimes
-
Share incidents and anecdotes: Now we discuss even our office problems with him, so he understands what we go through with on a daily basis and also gives his own inputs—how to deal with a situation creatively and innovatively
-
Take his opinion: Instead of telling him what to do, we ask him, what shall we do differently that will help him to make him feel important

My son is in 8 th grade. He is not taking interest in extra studies these days other than attending online classes. He is not even doing art work as he do not like it at all. Other wise he was very good in studies before. I am also confused whether to force him or let him take it lightly this year.
