There are several ways of deal- ing with tantrums in child, several· wrong ways but only one right way,
It is worse than useless to try repressive measures, for the con- dition is more than anything a nervous one. Punishment, or even sternness, will only serve
to in- 'tensify the child's nervous tep-

Gentle firmness and sympathy, and even sometimes a little pet- ting, will do more to quieten the child and then, of course,
