Taming Tantrums...
There are no of reasons why tantrums are DC(developmentally correct)for toddlers- a normal part of growing up.
What's behind your toddlers tantrums??
1.They need to release frustration. (being unable to complete a puzzle ,button a shirt, ride an older sibling bike)

2. They need to express their feelings, needs and wishes. Most toddlers don't yet have the language skills to do this. For them, a tantrum speaks louder than words.

3. They need to assert themselves and to send the message,'' I am important. What I want counts.''

4. lack of control over their lives. With adults always telling them what to do and what not to do, a tantrum is often the only way toddlers can say '' this is my life''.

5. Lack of control over the emotions. Toddlers are inexperienced at checking their emotions. When emotions get out of control ,so do toddlers.

If we understand this...what we can give to our child is only our LOVE..
