Yup.i believe Angelo is going through it.

I cant even go to Babies R us without him
crying about something.

done.& when i tried to
take him out.he was crying so
loud.everyone was looking.
its so hard.& i need

i think williams over the most of that
thankfully. hes so much calmer now than a
month ago
whenever he has a tantrum, keep calm.
always reassure him everything is ok
afterwards.

If Oni sees a ride, I"ll put her on it,
but not put the money in...cuz she will
want to do it foreverrrrr!!!!!
THen I'll distract her with a toy, or
candy! (horrible I know, but desperate
times call for desparate measures!!!)

If my son starts to pull tantrums in
public ...I will pick him up and go home.
If iam doing some important shopping I
would just sit him in the cart and ignore
him or like sarah does distract him with
something colorful.

I do the same thing Sarah.But he would
just sit there.
& the i would give him a toy or
something to eat.
& i would not work.
WHEN will this end?
or is it just a monthly phase? cause last
month he wasn't like this.

25cents ours is a doller.
we put reese in one two weeks ago and he
hated it.. scared the ..... out of
him....
theres not muh you can do really... reese
is only 16 month old soon and he can be a
pain too.. he's been a whiner about
everything latily...
just remember these are all phases and you
have to stay calm ( i kno its hard
sometimes) and tell them no and to be
quiet.. if it comes to it you have to
leave.. we've done it a couple times
now... if u have someone with u and ur in
a store u need to get stuff in just get
someone to sit in the car with him and
finnish wat u need and go home.

Hes never been like this.
i cant hardly go out with him without him
crying about something.
Today i had to go to Walgreens to pick up
some stuff.
He just didnt wanna get out of the car
seat.
Then when we were in the store,he was
clam.
When it came to us leaving.he wanted to
stay.

I bought the book the Happiest Toddler on
the Block and it talks about how to handle
a tantrum. You shouldn't ignore it or
speak to your child calmly. You should
mimic their tone and say what you think
they're trying to say to you in short
words or phrases. ONce you get his
attention, offer him something else.
About 2 months ago she'd throw a tantrum
for everything and after using it for a
few weeks, she rarely throws a tantrum.
Like if she didn't want me to put on her
diaper. She'd throw a fit and I'd say
almost as loud as she was with tight
fights and facial expressions, "NO DIAPER!
NO DIAPER! I WANT OUT, OUT, OUT!" It was
enough to make her stop and wonder what
the hell was wrong with me and it showed
her that I understood what she was trying
to say and I respected what she was trying
to say.
Then whne she was calm, I'd say in a calm
voice, "But mommy has to put it on and
look, I'm all done!" Then I'd hug her
and we'd play or something.

What does the book say to do when your kid
makes you chase him to get him dressed.
Cuz the only thing that works for me is
catching him and wrestling him into his
clothes....

Sarah
William is able to walk past them without
wanting to go on them now. we've
established that rides are for holiday. he
understands that.
ours is a doller.
