Tantrums at Drop Off

[sunnydays]

I think the cheering was meant to distract him and to use humour to snap him out of it...to make him see the ridiculous nature of his behaviour ( as much a 2 year old can). I don't think it was meant to say that we condone his behaviour...she did NOT say to give him a prize or a cupcake. I think anything that stops the tantrum (with the exception of bribery etc) is fine. And I do think the tantrum is him expressing him emotions...he just isn't old enough to express them appropriately and needs to be snapped out of it.
