WHAT IS TANTRUM?
This is an expression of anger from children, it may be Through screaming, stomping, and threshing about just because they are unable to have their way or get what they want. Below is a picture of a child displaying tantrums

WHY IS IT NECESSARY FOR PARENT TO READ ABOUT TANTRUM?
I choose to deliberate on this topic because failure for parents to handle their children's tantrum effectively this can affect both the child and the parents as they grow up, For example if a child throws tantrum because he or she wants to eat biscuits and the parents always yield to it, when the child notice that they can always throw tantrum to get what they want they will continue.
If action it's not second the parents will have less control over the reactions of their children as they grow, and the child may turn out controlling the parents and being disobedience.

WHY DO TANTRUM HAPPEN
• Children have no experience when it comes to handling emotions this can lead to tantrum.
• Take your mind to when a child is 2years, the changes the takes place, From the time that he was given birth to, parents takes care to his every need. If he cried, for example, parents are worried ‘is it stomach ache? Does he food? soothed? changed?’ The parents tries their best to solve the problem, And that was the right thing to do because a baby is fully dependent upon his parents, at about age two, however, a child begins to notice that the parent has limit there care and attention, In fact, instead of their caring for his needs, they want him to comply with their wishes. Things turn around, and a two-year-old will not know how to handle such situation than to protest—and that could come in the form of a tantrum.

WHAT CAN PARENT DO?
• Be understanding: understand that your child have little or no experience handling his emotions as such he or she may overreact when he is upset, so as parents try to see the situation through his eyes.
• Stay calm: Losing your temper because your child is having some trump will not help it, infact to the extent possible ignore the tantrum.
• Be firm to your word: If you give in to all your child's demand, He will always use tantrum as a means to get what he or she wants,so gently show your child that you won't go back on your word.
• Be patient: Do not expect the tantrum so go immediately, especially if you have given your child reasons to stop the tantrum, give the child sometime, they will stop.
• When the tantrum begins, hold your child in your hands and without hurting him, stop him from thrashing about.
• Do not shout at your child. Just wait for the situation to calm, as time passes the child will realize that the tantrum yield no good result
• choose a particular place you can put your child when he has a tantrum. Let him know that he will only come out if he stops the tantrum
• If your child display tantrum in public, remove him from the eyes of others. Do not give in just because he is creating a scene.
I believe my little piece of writing will go a long way to assist parents in raising well mannered and respectful child. Much love to our dear kids
