How To Handle A Tantrum

While I was in Colombia my  2 year old son had a few more tantrums than I did.  Yes I still have tantrums but mine are more passive agressive in nature and not very noteworthy of any blog recognition.  However, my son has me beat.  He decided to throw himself on the floor and have a full out tantrum in the middle of a beautiful Colombian mall right when the security was passing by.  What did we do?  Well, we did what any normal middle American couple would do.  My wife sat down to enjoy the show while I grabbed my camera and documented the display.  Several minutes later I got down next to him and whispered in his ear... "Hey, I have a question.  What is the name of the shark in Finding Nemo?"  He looked at me and replied, "Bruce!"  And that was that.        


How do you handle tantrums at home, family weekend breaks or vacation?
