A member asked:

My 18 month daughter has a bad temper she gets furious how can i deal with her?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pick your battles: It is normal for her to feel frustrated. Some children are strong willed; they like to control situations. Don't be an audience to her tantrums. Pick your battles--if it isn't important don't pick it.
