1. Because I wouldn't let him jump off the couch and onto his brother.

2. Because he had to get into the car.

3. Because he had to get out of the car.

4. Because I wouldn't take him to see "baby pterodactyls". Yes, as in flying dinosaurs.

5. Because he finished eating all his (and the rest of my) dinner, and there wasn't any more.

6. Because he wanted seconds, but he was expecting the seconds to be cold, and they were still warm as I hadn't tubbed them up and put them in the fridge (because I had *expected* him to want more!!)


NB: Luckily, DS2's tantrums last for about 60 seconds, so I can't really complain.
