Sometimes giving in early is actually the best approach to avoid teaching your child to use tantrums to get what they want. The message here isn't that we should always say yes to every request. But there are times when it's the best answer, even if you don't really want to allow their request.

Following this approach will help you avoid what's known as the "escalation trap", while allowing yourself to feel less pressure without creating longterm behaviour problems.

As always, I hope this helps!
