How can we better manage our emotions as parents when toddler throws tantrum?

First of all, do you two have support? A helper or parents to help out? It’s easy to get burn out when basic needs like sleep or alone time is not met. Remind your husband that children deserve respect too. Crying and throwing tantrum is a form of communication. They are not giving you a hard time, they are also having a hard time themselves. Will this perspective help? Tell your husband if the urge to shout or lose temper comes, go to a room to calm himself down before continuing. He should be the one managing his emotions, he can learn it on YouTube if he needs. And we shouldn’t expect a 2 year old to be able to regulate their emotions. We should be modeling it to them. Also find out why he shouts or lose temper. What triggered him? Was it because he was not allowed to cry when he was young? Hopefully pride does not get in the way when this question is raised. Remember to destress while your child sleeps. x
