Mr Tantrums!

You remember the day he was born? Or at least the first few weeks.. When he would just lie in bed staring at the cieling and you wouldn't relate to him... 

You would look at him and think ' what is he thinking?' ' I don't get this kid at all' 

And then of course you start spending more time together and soon enough you get every sound of his.. This sound for food.. That gurgle is a laugh and so on...

Well that feeling happens again when he starts going to school... And he come back and throws a big ass tantrum... 

You'll look at him and think 'what is he thinking?' ' I don't get this kid at all'!!!!!!

Ha ha ha!! 

No but really... Bumling has been on a tantrum spree last few days... Take a toy away or say no to him when he tries to pull the charger wire out... And mr will go screaming and shouting and beating the poor sofa or table...

And you'll just look at him like he's lost his mind...! 

But more than that you will think where did he see this? Where did he learn to scream and beat things and throw them? Unfortunately when he starts school along with nursery rhymes and colors he will learn from the other kids how to throw a tantrum... 

I remember the first week of his school when all the mothers were allowed in class...  There was this one time this little boy started randomly shouting in class... Again and again and again while the teacher was doing a puppet show.. And instead of calming her kid and making him sit, the mother happily cheered him on.... Some parent do think it's ok for kids to scream in public.. 

Bache toh bache hain chilaenge.... 

Kids are kids they will shout..

I think not...

So when siddy throws his little fit at home, we completly ignore him. The minute you even ask him what's wrong he will think of doing it more.. And hell if you snicker or laugh .. He'll get even more encouraged. 

I'm not sure he fully comprehends when I shout at him for shouting or don't talk to him or look at him when he is throwing things on the floor... But I think it's very important even at this young an age to let him know in some way or another that what he is doing is wrong. 

And while this is quite a learning stage... It's also fun and funny at so many levels watching him beat up the sofa every time I say 'No Siddy'
