How to calm your child in public

I have used spell casting to get my ex husband back to me and also get pregnant with twins girls through the help of a great and trusted spell caster after 12 years of marriage.

When I came online last year, I met a testimony about Priest ODUNGA who has been helping people and I decided to contact him. We spoke on email at (odungaspelltemple@gmail.com) and later he gave me his Whats App number which is +2348167159012 and he assured me he would help me get my ex husband back after 3 years of no contact. My husband left me because I was unable to give him a child for 9 years after our marriage. There was no contact between us anymore and I didn't know how to get to him. Priest Odunga is the best spell caster I must say. My husband called me after 24 hours of contacting Priest Odunga. Soon I received a herbal medicine for fertility from this man, I became fertile. I and my husband reconnected that very week, had sex and I became pregnant. Today, I am happy today to be the mother of twins girls and this is ALL THANKS TO PRIEST ODUNGA. I came online to say this If you need help, I believe you are saved with this spell caster. Contact his email at (odungaspelltemple@gmail.com) and you too will give a testimony too to help others

Try to minimise any issues by making sure my boys aren't overtired or hungry can often help. I also follow through on everything, ie if you behave at the shops, when we get home we'll go to the park etc. If they misbehave, no park

Good advice. No empty threats.

i dont give in and leave if need be

Still had no chance to encounter a child throwing tantrums luckily. And my niece is such a great kid! With her never any issues

thanks to online shopping! Although we do go the shops every now and then, make it short and sweet

There are some great techniques to use. It can be hard, but with the right support and advice just like given here, the child and parent can have a much better outcome.

Oh and how did I deal with it? I told her we were leaving and she quickly jumped into the water!

My 11 year old actually had a tantrum on the beach yesterday!! Can you believe it? 11!

oh the crazy times I go out with my twin bubs and their toddler brother - I need these tips and then some! good collection

Great Tips.

I'm not a mum but I do feel for mums when I see them out shopping or somewhere in public with a little toddler having a melt-down .... must be very difficult!

I've not really had to deal with Tantrum so much, but the constant whining is just as bad!

Great tips here for when I have my own kids.

I tried to avoid taking my girls grocery shopping, instead I had my husband do something special with the girls and used to call this time Daddy/ Daughter time whilst I went grocery shopping. I would always bring them home a treat from the supermarket, and made a game of putting the groceries away. Some battles you just cant win.

this is such an amazing list

My Mum and I used to take my 2 nieces shopping with us sometimes. We had the luxury of making sure we bought their favourite treat when they weren't with us. Then if one of the asked (there was a good chance the younger one would "spit the dummy") when we said "No" we could honestly say they had to wait until we got home. If she didn't behave after that she got given less than usual. She soon learnt not to argue about it.

I take my hat off to people who have kids - I just couldn't deal with it!!

My niece has three children under the age of five, I have copied this article and passed it onto her, it will come in very useful.

I don't have any kids but I remember my mom handling our temper tantrums by talking to us calmly and putting us in time out if we didn't listen.

I still think this little boy is ultra cute!

Thank you for your interesting and often useful articles. I find though that each parent or grandparent has to trial themselves what works best for them. A calm voice won't always work as they then sometimes throw an even bigger tantrum. I can't really say one thing worked best but I'm grateful I survived the stage and now have the most well behaved children on the planet - most of the time :)

dfinitely not giving them the attention they want helps

I have two boys and my toddler who is nearly 3 is the most active little boy who can have massive tantrums that can go on for nearly 20 to 30 minutes. Both my husband and I are consistently quite firm with his boundaries and it doesn't prevent them I am afraid. It is the little individuals personality and determination coming through. We of course recognise the signs to try minimise them but at times they can't be helped. We have had some in public and appreciate the knowing faces/smiles from other parents. I feel at times other people especially elderly or without children should be mindful that a preschool child behaving badly is very different to a school child who obviously has some understanding of good and bad behaviour. A preschool child having a tantrum is frustration due to their lack of understanding their feelings and not a reflection of your parenting. It does seen you bonkers some days that's for sure!

What annoys me the most is women who clearly let their kids get the better of them by yelling at them with empty threats. My grandmother and mother always told me if your going to threaten, always follow through. If your child is throwing a tantrum and you tell them that if they don't calm down you'll take their chocolate off them, do it, chuck it away. If you tell them your never going to the supermarket with them again, don't take them for acouple of months so they get it through their heads that if they chuck a tantrum, that's what happens. Empty threats, do not work. And don't yell for crying out loud, it's the worse thing you can do and no one wants to hear you yelling at your child at the top of your lungs. I'm lucky that my son knows when I am angry because I am a calm person and as soon as my voice changes to a stern tone, he knows he's in trouble. What's the saying? Keep calm and carry on.
