Default need advice on what to do with my toddler?????

Well I was wondering if someone could give me some advice on a few things. Well see i have a 19 month old daughter, when she gets mad she throws a fit then get angry, throw things etc. but when she does this she does it out of control like she basically doesn’t know she is doing that. When she gets mad her face get so red,eveil looks, hits, bits, really mean. Its like not a normal thing for a toddler to do other than i know how 2yr old are since i have raised a few of my sisters kids. How can I show her a different path? I am a single mother trying to raise my daughter on my own other than my mother helps me also. If you could give me some ideas on what i could do.. I would really appreciate it. thank you!

she is doing it because it works. you are allowing her to do it.ignore her completely. walk out of the room if you have to. COMPLETELY IGNORE HER.when she figures out that you will not look at her or talk to her while she is in a fit she will quit.keep in mind that this will not stop instantly. and what ever you do... DON'T GIVE IN or it will continue and it will get worse!

Well it's pretty much normal for toddlers to throw tantrums so don't stress too much. When everyone was telling me about terrible two's no one said anything about terrible 1 and 1 1/2. You just have to find a way to help handle the situation and so you don't feel overwhelmed. Check out the link it's a great site. I reference it often. Good Luck!!!

As much as it seems monotonous you have to remain consistant with what you say to her. This goes along with time outs, taking toys away and so on and so forth. Main thing is consistancy, and remain calm. When she sees you upset it may reinforce her to act in a manner that destroys things and doesn't show respect for toys, and other things. If she does not show respect for her things, she should not be able to enjoy them. That's what I believe and so far it's working. Knock on wood!

Whatever she throws, if it is hers, pick it up and put in in the trash. Tell her that when she throws things, it means she wants to "throw them away" and she won't have them anymore.If she throws things of yours then carry her to her own room and tell her that she needs to pick her own things to "throw away".If she is just having a fit and not throwing anything or hurting anyone. Ignore her. Ignore her until you are going crazy.I used to call me friends on the phone and make them talk to me to keep me from looking at my daughter while she had her fits. One fit lasted for almost three hours. The good thing is, her fits never got her what she wanted and never got her attention. She quit trying that technique within a few months. Not bad for a two year old Good Luck
