When your child gets the TANTRUMS.
ANTRUMS are really energy run amok. A child develops through the continual effort to do something just beyond his present powers. The strain of this effort, if persisted in too long, causes fatigue.
His ability to continue to direct his energy temporarily breaks down and energy then expresses itself in little acts of violence, such as stamp- ing, screaming,, or breaking something if only a rule of conduct). Occasional tantrums, therefore, may be looked on as a natural and healthy symptom of growth.
of Few parents know the right way to cure or prevent a tendency to
tantrums.

There is a society which helps in these matters by advice and intro-1 ductions. Girls must, however, be prepared to pay their own passages

Some lose their child's confidence and encourage the development of a sullen disposition by trying to laugh him out of his tantrums. Others aggravate the mental disturbance still further, by punishment. Others again advocate a policy of wholesome neglect,
The danger of leaving a child to come to his senses alone is that a bright, enterprising child may easily be turned into an apathetle, sulky lttle bring. He knows the cause of his tantrums-his sense of frustration, of Inability to cope with something too hard for him. He feels tha!

tantrums are frequent, and his power of directing his energy is soon there may be some other contributory cause, such as stuffy atmosphere, light or heavy clothing, or Indigestion. Contributory causes may be mental-for example, con- stant interruption of his activities by some adult or other child, or work- ing against time, or striving to obey cramping rules.
Do not tease
Tantrums are exhausting, and to lease a child for the amusement his show of temper affords is wrong. Far from teaching him self-control it commonly has the opposite effect, upsetting the nervous equilibrium and increasing the tendency to tan- trums,
