Give no them no : negative or positive attention - no eye contact, no angry posture, no talking. Tantrums will escalate rapidly at first in an attempt to elicit previous responses, then extinguish almost as quickly if not reinforced. If behavior, development/ academics &/or peer interaction are harmfully impacted by tantrums at home & school for at least 6 mos., especially over age 4, seek professional help.
