I really don't know what to do with Clemmie when she has a uncontrollable tantrum in the public. But I am one of those parents who doesn't really care what other bystanders say because all I can do is to soothe her even if she decided to lay on the ground in the middle of the mall. It is either that or screaming. The mall security guy came by to see if she was okay and then told me that she shouldn't lay on the floor.
The reason Clemmie was upset was because the amusement park was closed until 12:30PM for an event and we were there an hour early. If I knew I wouldn't have taken the kids so early. And she is one of those kids who has no patience whatsoever and with her excitement to disappointment that led to an aggressive transition. I even took her to Toys R Us to pick out a toy and she refused at first and I was only able to contain her for 30 minutes. Within that 30 minutes she did pick out a piggie toy bank. And the rest was her breakdown of screaming and yelling and crying then eventually she lay on the ground I was able to give her deep pressure massage from her head to her toes which has a calming effect.
