How to Stop a Tantrum
I worked in a Pre-K class. I was told that the students were usually fairly good. However, I didn’t know for sure as it was my first year teaching, and we had multiple students with severe behavioral issues. One of the students was throwing a giant tantrum.
They were on the floor, kicking, screaming, biting—you name it. After over an hour of it, I finally said, “That’s how you think we act in the classroom? Fine. I get to act that way too”. Before the student could respond, I dropped to the floor and started kicking and screaming.
It stopped their tantrum, and I didn’t have any issues with them the rest of the day. Story credit: Reddit / TaxationIsMemes
