- A child feels trapped when he/she is not allowed to complain, which is sometimes necessary, allow them to do it.
- Anger outbursts/Rage are more often than not a coping/protection against an underlying feeling of sadness and more so, felling frightened.
- Allow him/her to cry on your shoulder, be there for them when they feel so hopeless
- It is worth it to let the child tantrum and work through the emotion. He/She will be a different child afterwards, possibly learning how to better understand and handle the feeling which caused the tantrum to start with.
