Chester is a happy boy and very playful, but he is also one stubborn kid with temper. At times, he will throw a fist when he failed to achieve what he wants to do. He throws toys to across the room, and he wouldn't stop even you tell him not to. I use the count down 1-2-3 method so he can learn that he need to stop when mommy counts to three. It works well with Haley, but it doesn't mean anything to Chester. He will purposefully pick up another toy to throw after I count to three. One time, he didn't get what he wanted at the store, he decided to sit on the floor and scream. Owen and I tried to reason with him but he wouldn't care. We walked away and said bye to him. We walked out of the store and peeked in to see how he reacted. He stopped crying but just sat there and waited. After couple minutes, I had to go back in because we were in a hurry to pick up Haley). Instead of picking him up, I told him to stand up and come to me. He waited and finally decided to walk to me. I AM SO NOT going to give in to him or else I have to suffer in the future with his tantrum.
