[QUOTE="BloodiedButUnbowed, post: 696143, member: 13303"] I am sorry you are going through this. It is a burden nobody can understand unless they have lived it themselves. Children's behavior is reinforced by our response. By buying him the toy, you rewarded your son for his tantrum. In the future, enduring his tantrum and not giving him what he wants - at least not in mid-tantrum and not until he has served whatever consequence you set for his behavior, such as a time out - might be a better solution. If your son's tantrums are beyond what you feel is normal for his age .... perhaps consult his pediatrician and ask for a referral to a psychiatrist. It is hard for us to tell, on an Internet forum, exactly what might be going on with your son. Best wishes [/QUOTE]
