My youngest is 16 months and is very good at throwing a temper tantrum. He will hit or head bang, use any toy or anything he is holding, scream and go red in the face. If I say 'no' he will repeat it over and over. If I put him in his cot he will continue to scream and carry on for a time.
I can't put him in time out as there's no way he would sit still, being this young.
Most of the time he is fine, but he seems to chuck these tanties several times a day - every time I say 'no' to him for something he wants to do.
I know it is a stage that he will eventually grow out of, but does anyone have any ideas to get through this??

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
My daughter wouldn't do the "naughty spot" until about 22 months old. If she does get up, I pick her up, set her back down and say nothing. If I have to do this constantly the 2 minutes she's to sit there, I say nothing. When I set her down I say why she's in trouble. When I get her when the 2 minutes are up, I get at eye level, tell her why she's there, and ask her to apologize if necessary.
Not sure if this helps. I think when my daughter was you son's age, I would basically say no and ignore her.
I do wish you all the best!!! I know this is such a trying time! Hugs!!
