As for the tantrums when out, ignore it. It is hard, and you will get stares, but put him in the trolley, strap him in, and ignore any of his tantrums. When he decides to calm down, redirect some attention to him. Eventually he will work out the behaviour isn't getting him what he wants, and he will try a new tack. It is the only thing that works here.


DITTO. It's hard to ignore, but ignoring it works. Every time. It will take a few minutes, most likely, and those few minutes will feel like FOREVER...but he will stop, just like my DD does. The ignoring is the best thing that works for us.
