I wouldn't ignore it.

I wouldn't buy the candy bar because that's going to help your toddler's tantrum stop.

That's the wrong choice, right?

Because then they'll keep having a tantrum because then they're going to get the candy bar every time they go to the store.

So you want to make sure that you're

choosing wisely when you're having that moment and taking them to a place to calm down.

And then you can decide if you're gonna resume whatever it was you were gonna do.

But they need that moment and you need to address it in that moment.

So it depends on the child.

Some kids just need to let it out and you can let them let it out because they're out of control and they just need to explode and let it happen.

Some kids really are comforted by physical touch.

So you can take some big breaths, help them take some big breaths, bring them down to a calmer place,

You can whisper or talk really quietly or sometimes you're just going to hold them silently until they kind of get it back together.

So different techniques work for different kids and kids with different temperaments are going to respond differently.

So you're going to have to figure out which strategy works.

But at the end of the day, you're going to calm them down emotionally and physically and then you can talk about it.

That's a great question.

So the candy bar example is a good one, is if your child has a tantrum and then to pacify them you...

by the candy bar, because maybe that's what they're having the tantrum about, then you've just chosen to see that behavior again.

So I would not select something to avoid conflict.
