Managing a Child's Temper Tantrum
Usually, sher displays her whining and tantrum towards me and her grandparents. But not to her Daddy as she knows he mean business when it comes to discipline. I need to remind myself not to give in as often as I should and always to balance the 'yes' and 'no', not forgetting the nurturing of creativity. It just ain't easy. She likes to push her boundary and I have to be consistent but there's other influence like her grandparents that spoilt her rotten which will deviate my parenting plan. I will use the naughty chair method adopted by Supper Nanny Show to discipline her and when all else fails, the spanking will take place. So far, it's very seldom that I will resort to such method as I want her to learn her lesson in an effective manner. Daddy is more of a spanker but I can see the early discipline is well in place and she is certainly much well behaved with Daddy around.

She can be good, finishing her food within half hour or worst in a hour. We hope that she will improve and finish up her meal quicker than an hour.
