The Upside of Toddler Tantrums

A parent is uncomfortable with her toddler's tantrums because her child seems so unreachable at these times. The parent's instinct is to reach out, soothe and reassure her child, but she realizes there is no way to get through to her when she's in the midst of it. She's hoping Janet has advice for how she might connect with respect and compassion.

Thank you for this ♥️ one thing to add though- I spent 45+ min holding space for my toddler who was absolutely melting down. Then I realized it was past snack time. I gave him a few bites of banana and he started to calm down. Then gave him some protein. I want to avoid fixing his feelings with food, but I think he had genuinely gotten hungry? 🙃 would love any thoughts about that response
