According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.apa.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>American Psychological Association<\/strong><\/a>, <strong>tantrums <\/strong>occur because young children have not yet developed advanced emotional self-regulation skills. Parents often try unsuccessfully to calm them down, repeating strategies that inadvertently only make the situation worse. Phrases such as<em> &#8220;Stop crying now!&#8221;<\/em> or <em>&#8220;If you keep this up, I&#8217;ll punish you&#8221; <\/em>can intensify the problem rather than solve it.   <\/p><p>Especially at key stages such as <strong>tantrums at 18 months <\/strong>or <strong>tantrums over the arrival of a sibling<\/strong>, children are learning to manage their emotions, and their brains do not yet have the necessary tools to calm down on their own.
