My DD1 is starting to throw big wobblers - screams and goes rigid so I'm unable to bend her into the buggy or the car seat. This usually occurs when leaving the swings or similar.
When I'm at home I find it's best to ignore her and busy myself with DD2 as she stops when getting no attention. This is often difficult in public though - I find myself giving her a toy or a packet of raisins to distract her but I'm worried this is just rewarding her bad behaviour.
How do you other Mums deal with it?
