Having a hard time with public tantrums. My daughter’s 2.5 and the tantrums have been getting in better overall but when she has them she screams at the top of her lungs and she does this in public also. I’m an introverted person so I feel extremely embarrassed when this happens. At home we just ignore them but I can’t do that in public. First question is if you have a child that screams like this how are you handling it at home vs in public and not feel like everyone around you is judging for being a bad parent or kid.

My daughter does this too and it is so embarrassing but something that I try to remember is people are entitled to a child free life but not a child free world so children are going to be children. To our kids it is just a normal reaction to us it's an overreaction. What I do is I get on my daughter's level and I talk her through it. We discuss how she is having a big emotion right now and then we try to breath through it!
