What is it about?
This study looked at how parents' confidence in their parenting skills relates to how often their young children have temper tantrums. We found that when parents felt more confident in their abilities, their kids had fewer tantrums. Most of the parents in our study had a moderate level of confidence, and most of the children didn't have tantrums very often. When tantrums did happen, they usually involved things like screaming, stomping feet, or holding their breath.
