Just sit your child down someplace safe and walk away. After a few minutes your child should notice you aren't responding, and stop.

Larissa commented on January 18, 2013 - What do you do if they won't sit still and are frustrated because they think you don't care and wont listen? Should you sit with them, show that you care and try to reason by talking or walk away and talk after the tantrum ends?
We've brought out the video camera with the viewer pointed so our son could see it. This stops his tantrum as quickly as he notices himself in the viewer.
Be calm, respond with respect and understanding. Communicate and just be with your child during their outbursts. They are experiencing emotions that they aren't familiar with and they need to be listened to and taught how to deal with them.

When my daughter throws a tantrum, I tell her in quiet voice to go to her room until she calms down. I tell her, "When you are not crying anymore, you can come out and play again." She usually calms down after a few minutes and wants a hug afterwards.
