One kid tantrum story is about a little boy at a grocery store. He wanted a big bag of candies but his mom said no. So he started screaming at the top of his lungs, kicking his legs and rolling on the floor. People around were staring but the mom just calmly waited for him to calm down.
One way is to stay calm. If you get angry too, it'll just make the situation worse. For example, if a child is screaming in a store, just stand there quietly and wait for them to stop.
My cousin's toddler had a tantrum in the middle of a shopping mall. He wanted to ride the escalator up and down repeatedly. When she said it was time to go, he started to scream and grabbed onto the railing. People were staring, but she managed to pick him up and walk away quickly. It was really embarrassing for her at that moment.
Sure. One time at a supermarket, a little kid wanted a big lollipop. When his mom said no, he started stomping his feet and shouting, 'But I want it!' Then he threw himself on the floor and rolled around while people stared. It was hilarious.
I knew a man who got really angry during a meeting at work because his idea wasn't immediately accepted. He banged his fist on the table, stood up abruptly and stormed out of the room, slamming the door behind him. It was quite embarrassing for everyone there.
Sure. One time in a supermarket, a little kid wanted a big box of candies. When his mom said no, he lay down on the floor right in the middle of the aisle and started kicking his legs and screaming 'I want candies!' His face was all red and it was really funny.
Sure. One time, my little nephew wanted a cookie right before dinner. When we said no, he lay on the floor and started kicking his legs like he was cycling in the air. His face was all red and he was making these growling noises. It was hilarious.
Sure. Once I saw a little boy in a supermarket. He wanted a big lollipop. When his mom said no, he lay down on the floor and started kicking his legs like a little windmill. His face was all red, and he was making this high - pitched noise. It was hilarious.
I once saw a man in a restaurant who didn't get the table he wanted. He started yelling at the hostess, stomping his feet like a child. His face turned bright red and he was waving his arms around. It was so embarrassing.
A colleague of mine had a meltdown during a meeting. He didn't like the new project plan and started shouting, slamming his fists on the table, and storming out of the room. It disrupted the whole meeting and made everyone feel uncomfortable. He later apologized, but the damage was done.
Once when I was a kid, I went to a birthday party. I was so excited about the cake that when it was time to sing 'Happy Birthday', I started singing 'Happy Birthday' to the cake instead of the birthday kid. Everyone just stared at me and then burst out laughing.
