Every child is different! I found DS1 was difficult at 2yrs, 3 yrs, but easy at 18months, 30 months, or it might have been the other way round. DS2 slept for the first 2 years, then was difficult for the next 16.

DS is 4.5. He's never really had tantrums. Occasionally he used to have a meltdown but that was less angry and more upset. I don't think it's down to any parenting on my part though, just his nature really.

They don’t all have tantrums. I have 2 boys that didn’t ever have them. This was entirely down to luck rather than parenting.
