Re: Stores targeting tantrums
Sin...you get results because what most kids would like is attention. Not to be fawned over, not to be made "the center of the universe" (that's way too much responsibility for a child) - just a calm word or two.
Even children whose "speaking" vocabulary is poor have a much higher comprehension level than most people realize. It's by speaking to them in a normal voice with your normal vocabulary that they learn to increase theirs.
