What to do if your child is hysterical: saying “calm down” is useless
Sometimes parents are completely at a loss when their child has a tantrum.
If you don't know what to do either, here's the answer: let your child be capricious.
Asking him to calm down or stop crying is definitely not worth it - it’s useless anyway, since in this state the baby won’t even hear you.
Instead, act as if everything is normal and nothing special has happened.
Of course, you can only allow yourself to remain inactive if you are sure that the child is healthy and there are no other objective reasons for concern.
As soon as the capricious child understands that there will be no violent reaction to his hysteria, he will stop crying.
Want the concert to end quickly? Try using some kind of distraction: point to a crow in a tree and say that there is a real crocodile sitting there.
Alternatively, do something unexpected that will surprise or make the child laugh. For example, let the hair clip turn into a wolf and start to bite clothes.
The most important thing is not to give in to your child in what he is trying to achieve through his whims, so that he does not learn to manipulate you.
If you are ready to satisfy your child's request, do it right away so that he gets used to getting what he wants calmly.
If you decide not to give in, stand your ground to the end.
This is the only way to prevent tantrums in the future.
