Pringles story isn't funny. Imagine not being busy. No job. No interaction with your kids. Just sat on sofa eating someone send her a fucking reality check please. Fuming

I think it’s mainly to do with the context of the behaviour. For example what you described I would say is a meltdown as it’s likely that he got overwhelmed by the environment etc and he didn’t know how to deal with it. In other words he couldn’t help it or actively try to stop it whereas with a tantrum,I would say it’s more a deliberate action in response to something like when they throw themselves on the floor and thrash around, screaming and crying but you never see any tears if they want something for example. Although to be honest writing that out did make me think that there’s a very thin line between meltdown and tantrum as you could argue that a tantrum for being told no, or not getting what they wanted is also an emotional response rather than being naughty. Ronnie definitely doesn’t tantrum like she says though and most likely just has meltdowns

So I'm assuming Ronnies back in nursery, so 1 child to look after between 2 adults and the house is a mess. TEND RELATABLE

How insulting for Stacey's Dad that she's taking his photography and editing it for her own vanity

This is a great take on meltdown vs. tantrum.

I have two family members who work in schools for kids with additional needs. They have taught me this:
"There is no such thing as bad behavior. Just communication"

I have done my best to remind myself of this as a parent. I feel like tantrum is used so easily for toddlers. Young kids or kids who need additional support are frustrated. Their wee brains haven't caught up with processing bigger emotions or feeling overwhelmed or overstimulated. Parents need to help their kids manage their experiences and their emotions and help to prevent meltdowns from happening if they can. Also this doesn't just happen to little ones, older kids, teens and adults experience this too. Hinch needs to be educated, fast.
