Q&A: When should you start being concerned about your kid's tantrums?

Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg and I talk about...     1:48 - A tantrum is a behavioral expression of emotions that feel to big to express in a productive manner.   2:25 - Tantrums typically tend to start around one-year-old and petter out by about 7.   6:37 - Try to compare your child to their own emotion regulation development and not compare them to another child.   9:37 - It's helpful to track the intensity, duration, and frequency of your child's tantrums - because our memories of these high stress times can often be flawed and being able to look at a log is very helpful.   Click here to download my FREE OBSERVATION TRACKER to help you log these behaviors over the course of a week and work to change it over the course of 3 weeks.   14:10 - The red flags you should be on the lookout for that might mean there is something abnormal with your child's tantrums.     WANT TO TAKE THIS TOPIC EVEN FURTHER?
