My DS is 13 months old. He's yet to start walking but climbs and crawls well. In the last few days he's started throwing huge tantrums over the smallest things. So if you move him away from the washing machine, or take away the phone that he's playing with, or don't let him touch a boiling cup of tea, or if he can't open a box. It's sort of hilarious how extreme they are but also REALLY intense. He'll tuen bright red and arch his back screaming. It feels like it's come on over night, although he is getting his molars through at the moment so I don't know if that's relevant?
I was just wondering if you had any advice on how to deal with them? Ignore? Distract? Cuddle? Mixture of all of the above? I don't know if I'm overthinking it but I suppose I don't want how I respond now to become the blueprint for any future tantruming. It's come as a bit of a surprise...the terrible two's a but early!
