27. Well.. again, I ask you to just consider...
Edited on Fri Feb-01-08 03:52 PM by MissMillie
There is a school of thought out there that ignoring the tantrum is the best way to get it to stop quickly.


I know lots of people who have made that claim.

To elicit a "conditioned response" in this instance, the mother may be training her child that such behavior will not get rewarded w/ any kind of attention.

Is it right? Is it wrong? Who knows? I sure as hell don't.

Do we know for sure that this woman wasn't doing what she thought was best?

I won't sit in judgment.

The only person I can control is me. I shop in the evening.
