Question 1 of 5
A parent of a toddler asks a nurse at a well-child visit how the child's frequent temper tantrums can best be handled. Which of the following actions should the nurse suggest to the parent?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Ignore the temper tantrums. Ignoring temper tantrums helps to prevent reinforcing the behavior by not giving the child attention. This approach encourages the child to learn that temper tantrums will not lead to getting what they want. Distraction (

B) may escalate the situation. Physically restraining the child (
