Looking for an advice help from other parents about how to deal with my son's temper tantrums/outbursts. He is 6 years old and is generally a happy and creative boy. This past week has been really hideous with massive temper tantrums and outbursts when things don't go his way. This happens generally with me after school. I use the 'naughty step' with a timer for a time out/calm down technique and stickers for good behaviour but it is more difficult to deal with this behaviour out of the home.
He recently had a massive temper tantrum after a school activity, shouting, screaming and crying because I had said 'no' until I managed to get him in the car and home. This is the third day on the trot of this sort of anger and aggressive outbursts and am looking for some guidance. I really try to keep calm and explain the rules. Can anyone please offer any advice to help us?
