Tantrums are NOT, a type of "misbehaviour".

Through tantrums, children are expressing REAL emotions such as anger, frustration and despair.

Those emotions feel big to them and they need our support while they feel them so they can process them safely.

The best we can do when our child is having a tantrum, is to:

- stay with our child (leaving him alone will only increase his distress)
- stay as calm and grounded as possible ourselves (so his nervous system can co-regulate and calm down)

You've got this, Mama <3
