I Just successfully and healthily handled a tempur tantrum. OK, I was recording Jeremy on the video camera in my closet. The battery ran dead so I lead Jeremy out of the closet so I could put away the camera. I happily told him to go play with his toys. Then he started screaming--high pitch. I was still putting the battery on the charger in the closet, and I patiently ignored his screams. I then turned around and closed the closet door and came out with Jeremy. He continued to scream. He ran into the other room and kept screaming. All the while I was ringng the bell on his little phone with a smile and handing the phone to him and telling him there was a call. thats why we had to leave the closet. He was still mad. Then I spread my arms out for a hug and he fell into my arms. I gave him a bottle, rocked and sang to him and then put him in his crib with Clifford and his lullybye music.
