Let the kid know who the boss is! The kid should be wondering how to please you and not the other way around. If however, you are in the wrong- children love when the parent can admit he is wrong and show some respect. Treat others (this includes children) the way you would like to be treated.

First let the child have some time on his own. Dont press or push him.Maybe in a few minutes his anger will subside.
Then, try to cajole him with whats bothering him.Do it gently, however angry and viotile his mood is.Gently probe what he want,whether he wants to go someplace or buy something,or something you can help him out with.
At no time should the child feel threatened by your gestures.His anger will only flare.Dont get angry at him, or shout or show the stick.It will only worsen the matter.
If its a persistant problem, try homeopathic medecine.Its without side effects, keeps the child bright & tension free, and improves
his confidence level.
I too had a tantrum daughter, but now she`s grown up & fine, when we look back to the past, we laugh at how funny it was in the first place.
All the best to you. Children are flowers of our garden.

When a child is presented with a situation that angers them it is best to remove them from the situation.
But normal anger situations here......and you do not "pacify" a child. You help a child to identify their anger.
If your child seems upset or angry you must kneel to meet the child on an eye to eye level. If the child is old enough to comprehend some level of language skills then use appropreate terms to reach him/her.
Hold the hands or arms of the child, but do not restrain him/her.
Say in a level and quite voice:
Can you tell Mommy why you are upset?
Try to get him/her to verbalize thier anger.
Say that "if you don't tell Mommy why you are upset we can't make this Ok for you.
Wait for the responce.
If he/she can't verbalize their need then offer several alternatives that you think may be the problem.
Often times you will find that your child simply needs to be acknowledged. Try interaction.
Grocery store episodes are to be ended by leaving the store.
Temper tantrums are to be met head on. End the situation by closing the event of play, shopping or TV veiwing.
Appropreiate time out is one minute per year of age.
A 2 year old should be given 2 minutes, a 3 year old 3 minutes and so forth.
Their attention span lasts no longer than that. So it will not do to time out a child for 15 or 20 minutes for some inpropriority since 2 or 3 mintues into it they will not recall why you put them in time out.
Hope this helps.
