Realize that this is something that's important and necessary for both you and the child. Realize it takes time. You'll have bad days-days that you get angry. Finally, you must have patience. And parents can teach and encourage strategies to help their children manage their temperaments.
Some kids are more prone to tantrums.
And there may be certain environmental factors that set off those tantrums. Dr. Elizabeth Murphy, licensed psychologist and researcher, agrees. A child may have a preference for one behavior but is taught to behave in a more socially acceptable manner. Just as parents should avoid labeling a child's temperament-based behavior, they should also be careful not to punish the child for that behavior. If the child is intense, she shouldn't be criticized for being loud when she feels upset, just as she isn't punished for being loud when she is happy.
