How to Stop a Child's Tantrum with One Question
Every parent knows that a child's tantrum is something you can never be prepared for.
But don't be angry with the baby. After all, he is still learning about the world and himself, which means that he is simply learning about life and understanding the limits of what is permitted.
But at the same time, any person who raises a small child wants to find magic words that will help stop the flow of screaming and tears.
There is such an option. Experts recommend asking only one question in such situations in a calm tone.
When a child starts throwing a tantrum, you need to ask: "Is this a big problem, a medium problem, or a small problem?" At such a moment, the child needs to stop screaming and crying. After all, he needs to analyze the situation in order to answer the question.
Next, an adult needs to step in to explain that small problems can be easily solved very quickly, medium ones require some time, and serious and large ones require a long period of time or cannot be solved.
Then the child must come up with ways to solve the problem himself.
It is also worth adding that this method of calming usually works with children who are already over five years old.
