Ignoring won't help: what to do if your child throws a tantrum in public - a psychological trick
If a child starts crying and screaming at home, parents should choose a behavior strategy such as ignoring.
The baby will immediately understand that no one will talk to him until he calms down. As a result, the tears will most likely stop flowing.
But if a child starts to exhibit bad behavior in a public place, then ignoring him on the part of mom and dad is unlikely to be effective.
The problem is in the people around. It is possible that they will start looking reproachfully at parents who do not try to calm a crying child.
Perhaps one of the passers-by will want to intervene in the situation.
Therefore, when a child has a tantrum in public, the mother and father should act differently.
Psychological trick
You need to try to surprise the child. To do this, you need to whisper something unusual into the baby's ear.
An interesting fairy tale would be quite suitable. A funny counting rhyme is also a good option.
A surprised and interested baby will most likely stop crying immediately.
Earlier we named a phrase that parents should never say to their child.
