Is it normal for a 19 months old toddler to start throwing tantrums when she cannot get her way? My LO has recently been more temperamental and likes to throw tantrums when we do not give in to her. She will yell and cry loudly and wants to lie down on the floor even when we are outside. Could share how do you deal with such situations?

When my son threw a tantrum and laid on the floor, I simply walked off and said bye bye. I really never turn back. Of course I ensured it was a safe space for him, meaning little to no strangers around etc but still in public. From then on, he know he cannot throw tantrum. I just count 1,2,3 he will stop. Then I explain to him why and will give him hug or spend some time with him to divert his thoughts to happy thoughts.
