The Buckets by Greg Cravens for July 22, 2021

She’s good.

Kids are so ‘photo-sensitive’ these days.

That’s the best way to derail a tantrum! XD

Or else leave them to it, provided they’re at a place where it can be done.

My dad used to say “Cry louder, I can’t hear you!” which was a great distraction.

my dad had a great distraction for us kids when we misbehaved – I used the same one for my children. funny how my dad’s distraction taught us self control. something I find completely lacking in many under 30 today. also extremely funny that the ‘warning’ that has been attached to this type of distraction by the ‘modern’ day idiots – whoops sorry – psycho doctors never happened to us OR to the thousands I know that grew up with the same style distraction js

gosh, SHE IS REALLY GOOD!

Smile and the world smiles with you

She tricked him out of his tantrum. Smart.

We have 2YO tantrums. Not a tear, so we all howl along.

It’s hard to throw a good tantrum under these circumstances.
