Good morning.

Today, we are working on tantrums and meltdowns with different adults.

For ages 2 to 5, tantrums keep returning when different adults respond differently.

One adult explains. One adult repeats. One adult raises their voice. One adult comforts in the middle of escalation. One adult delays the boundary.

These are observable behaviors, and the issue is the calm-through-consistency protocol.

Today’s internal rule is simple: tantrums and meltdowns need one consistent boundary.
