5 Year Olds Tantrums - How You Should Respond When children are younger we often excuse tantrums as an age of corporate behavior. But at the age of five, we think they should be over. Regardless, temper tantrums are not to be tolerated. That does not mean the child should immediately be punished for the tantrum. You will likely get better results by trying to understand what has caused this extreme emotional response. It could be a cry for attention, love, or a sign that your child needs help learning to cope with strong emotions. Set aside a place in your house for your child to go when they are having a hard time controlling their emotions. You can call this a calm couch or a call seat. Whatever you call it, use it as a place to train your child on how to regulate his own emotions. Find Out What Is Bothering Your Child At the age of five, tantrums are not typical. The normal reasons of separation anxiety, frustration, and problems communicating, are not as likely anymore. That means, you need to invest and find what is causing your child to have such strong emotional responses. Truly, Food and Diet -- Even Allergies Can Cause Tantrums You need to start keeping a journal of all of your childs tantrums. Whenever they have a tantrum, write down what they had eaten what they've had to drink, if they've been around pets, and anything else you can remember. The goal is to gather enough information to find a common cause. Review The Data Having the data is no good if you do not look for trends.
