The lo I take care of is almost two and we are in an awful tantrum "phase"- he has always been a tantrumer but it has really escalated in the past two months. Every transition is a huge meltdown, any time he doesn't get what he wants is a huge melt down. Today we had to leave the park after an hour and a half to go to the pool (siblings had lessons) and even though the pool is his favorite place on earth and it is a five minute drive he screamed the whole way.

We are at a loss as to what to do, it is stressful and wrangling him physically hurts, I am paying my chiropractor half a days wages weekly...

I have been a nanny for a long time and I am pretty good at the usual tactics, but I could use some fresh inspiration! Thanks!
